I'll add them to my list. Daniel Tiger is big around here - I need to find our big brother books that we got in a multi-pack! </p> <p>@erinbaderin: Love the idea of a baby doll! I know we'll need to practice "gentle hands"...</p> <p>@maddyz: This sounds like a great choice!</p> <p>Thanks everyone! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/books-for-the-older-sibling#post-2779454 Fri, 13 Oct 2017 12:16:44 +0000 maddyz 2779454@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have really liked Mail Harry to the Moon. It deals with learning to share with a new sibling and it's been really important for us to deal with those feelings... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/books-for-the-older-sibling#post-2779260 Thu, 12 Oct 2017 12:48:24 +0000 erinbaderin 2779260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I liked Waiting for Baby by Rachel Fuller, it talks about things that happen during the pregnancy (painting a nursery, mom going to the doctor) as opposed to things that happen once the baby arrives.</p> <p>We also got B a baby Corelle doll and a stroller for Christmas before W arrived, kind of a "practice baby". </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/books-for-the-older-sibling#post-2779258 Thu, 12 Oct 2017 12:43:43 +0000 misolee 2779258@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You were the First by Patricia MacLachlan<br /> I cried reading this book with my oldest when I was pregnant with my second and I’m not a sappy person. </p> <p>Hello in There by Jo Witek<br /> We loved this book because it helped my daughter grasp waiting on little brother. It’s hard for a 3.5 year old to wait 9 months!</p> <p>The Daniel Tiger big brother book was also good too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/books-for-the-older-sibling#post-2779234 Thu, 12 Oct 2017 11:37:16 +0000 HeartAbandoned 2779234@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm working on a Christmas list for DS, who will be a big brother for the first time next spring, and I'd like to include some "big brother"/"older sibling" books. What do you have and love? Thanks in advance! </p>
