Reach for this book when your child is struggling to understand a younger sibling's seemingly irrational behavior or when they are curious about their own early milestones. This story offers a rare and charming perspective by putting the reader directly into the mind of a very young child, Sam Krupnik, from the moment he is born through his early toddler years. It provides a bridge of empathy for older children who find little brothers or sisters frustrating. While the book is deeply funny, it serves a secondary purpose as a psychological tool to help children view the world through someone else's eyes. Lois Lowry masterfully balances Sam's internal logic with the external reality of his family, making it an excellent choice for fostering emotional intelligence and sibling bonding. It is a gentle, realistic, and humorous look at the growth of a personality within a loving, intellectual family unit.
