Table of ContentsReviewsBold and brilliant collage, ink and pastel illustrations expressively capture the big sister's emerging attachment for her little sister. Perfect for families introducing new babies to older siblings. --Kirkus Reviews This could have been just another story about a child adjusting to a new baby in the family. Instead, its Korean-American perspective and mixed-media collage illustrations set the title apart...The illustrations use just the right colors and lines to capture the children's changing emotions. Short enough to read aloud and detailed enough to engage the eye over multiple independent or one-on-one readings, this book is a welcome addition to an overpopulated field. --School Library Journal From irritation with a younger sibling to wistful daydreaming, the spare narrative is true to a child's perspective. Illustrations rendered in collage, ink drawings, and oil pastels portray an energetic older preschool sister whose emotions range from disgust to tenderness. An upbeat new baby title, this Korean American family story is also good for storytimes and multicultural units. --Booklist Author InformationTab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
