Big Sister

Ruby and the New Baby




A touching story about Ruby, an adorable and slightly spoilt little girl, who quickly realises that becoming a big sister isn't always fun

Being a big brother or sister isn't always easy. Join Ruby as she learns to adapt to having a new member of the family and discovers what it is really like to be a big sister.

Ruby is three years old and is an only child. She is a little bit spoilt and is used to being the centre of attention in her family. But things are about to change. Ruby is going to have a new brother or sister soon. Ruby is excited - she can't wait to help her little brother or sister get dressed and play ball with them! But when Ruby's baby brother, Raj, is born, she realises that being a big sister isn't as fun or easy as she had expected...

Follow this cheeky child as she discovers what it is truly like to be a big sister and have a new sibling in the family. It can be difficult for children to adapt to a new family dynamic, but it is important for families to talk about the tricky topic. Big Sister provides parents with a resource that promotes discussion and gently introduces toddlers to the idea of having a new sibling and the challenges and emotions they may experience during this time. Packed with beautiful illustrations and a beautifully-written heart-warming story, this board book is a great addition to any child's bookshelf and is perfect for adults and their little ones to share together.

Having a younger sibling isn't always easy. Have you got what it takes to be a great older brother or sister?
