With the help of Angus, the lovable Answer Dog, best-selling author Heidi Murkoff extends a hand to children and parents as they tackle life's first experiences together. Congratulations -- you're having another baby! You're excited and a little nervous, but most of all you're wondering how you're going to explain this miraculous, but complex, process to your older, but still very young, child. We're here to help you answer your child's questions about how a baby is created, how it grows, and how it comes out to join the family. Have fun! Amazon.com Review: With a little handholding (or paw-holding) from Angus the Answer Dog, Mommy's first-born can be guided happily and intelligently through the often bewildering experience of becoming an older sibling. For children who are about to lose their only-child status (or their youngest-child status, in larger families), this read-aloud book is a treasure. On each two-page spread, Angus asks a question: 'Where is the baby?' 'How did the baby get in there?' 'Can the baby hear and see me?' 'Why doesn't Mommy feel well sometimes?' and more, each question anticipating the next. He answers these queries with clarity, sensitivity, and attention to age-appropriateness that will be a huge relief to parents and children. Each section has a little game or idea to help children understand what's happening in their family. The introduction invites parents to add to or edit the information provided, according to their own child-rearing philosophies. Heidi Murkoff, coauthor of the bestselling pregnancy book, What to Expect When You're Expecting, writes lucidly and honestly in all the books in the tremendously appealing What to Expect series for young children, including What to Expect When You Use the Potty and What to Expect When You Go to the Doctor. Laura Rader's cartoonish illustrations are fun and reassuring. Poor Angus will be dog-eared in no time! (Ages 2 to 5) --Emilie Coulter Customer Reviews Average Rating: Rating: - There are better books out there I got this book as we're trying to have a third baby and I was really disappointed with the graphics and content. There are better books out there! Rating: - Doesn't sell itself I don't like that the excerpt for this book only gives one page of text. I really can't tell what this book is about by one page or if it's appropriate for my 5-year-old who bores easily if it's not about him. The "surprise me" page is only an illustration. Rather frustrating. Because of this, I'll look for other books that give more detail. Rating: - Best to pre-read and edit according to childs age When my husband and I found out we were going to have a second child(complete surprise). Our daughter will be almost 23 months when I should give birth. I have gotten the What to Expect when you are Expecting, and What to Expect the First year. When I saw this book, I knew we should get it. The only thing that I would warn all parents about is that the book is written matter of factly, using all the formal terms for the parts of the body for both men and women. The book does say that you should ... Read More Rating: - Too much info/words for 14 month old I found this book at a discount book store and bought it without reading it. Should have read it first, my fault (it was cheap). It is way too lenghtly for a young child, read it to him for the first time at 14 months old. I realize it says 2-4 years old, but I thought it would be somewhat decent for my son. My son will be 18 months old when the baby arrives. We looked at the pictures and talked about them. I also paraphrased the wording and only read what I thought he could understand. Each section/question ...

It did not tell me how the sperm got in and they come from. i never knew those things until i was almost nine. p.s. i reccomend it's so amazing and whats the big secret! see more Browse for similar items by category: Ages 4-8 - Children's Books - 4-for-3 Books Store - Custom Stores - Specialty Stores - Books - General New Baby - Family Life - People & Places - Children's Books - 4-for-3 Books Store - Custom Stores - Specialty Stores - Books - Nonfiction Social Issues - People & Places - Children's Books - 4-for-3 Books Store - Custom Stores - Specialty Stores - Books - New Experiences Emotions & Feelings - Social Situations - People & Places - Children's Books - 4-for-3 Books Store - Custom Stores - Specialty Stores - Books - Nonfiction 4-for-3 Books Store - Custom Stores - Specialty Stores - Books - All 4-for-3 Deals
