Reach for this book when your child is curious, anxious, or excited about a new baby joining the family. It is a perfect selection for a big-sibling-to-be who needs to see that while life is about to change, the result is a joyful expansion of love rather than a loss of attention. Through the lens of a whimsical search-and-find adventure, the story validates the child's importance within the family unit. As Little Bear wakes from hibernation and searches for Papa Bear, children are invited into a detail-rich world of forests and circuses. The book uses clever die-cut pages to build anticipation, mirroring the 'wait' for a new sibling. It is a gentle, visually stunning way to transition a child from being the 'baby' to becoming an older sibling, emphasizing that the biggest surprises in life are often the ones we share with those we love most.
