A parent would reach for this book when their child is expressing vocal resistance or anxiety regarding a new baby. While many books focus on the joy of becoming a big sibling, this story speaks directly to the natural desire to regress and remain the sole focus of a mother's attention. Through a playful and absurdist lens, it validates the common childhood wish to take back the space the new baby now occupies. Appropriate for ages 3 to 6, this book uses humor and imaginative oil illustrations to tackle deep-seated sibling jealousy. It offers a safe, lighthearted way to discuss complicated feelings without the child feeling guilty for their envy. Parents will appreciate how it uses a child's own logic to bridge the gap between being the only child and becoming a big brother or sister.
