Review: A helpful story for children welcoming a new baby to the household. Whimsical woodland characters create a relatable story about the emotions children might experience with a new baby in the house. Feelings about being forgotten or feel like they're no longer the focus of the parents attention are BIG feelings for young children. The colorful illustrations are relatable and fun. A great book for new BIG siblings.

Note: I received a free copy of this ebook from the publisher via NetGalley. My review is my own.

Rating: 5/5 stars.

“Squirrel is Going to Be a Sister” is an adorable tale about a young squirrel whose baby sister has just been born. It is a very relatable story for those with younger siblings. The premise of the book is an important lesson for all children to know; just because you have a new sibling or friend, doesn’t automatically make you any less loved by your friends and family. Everyone is unique and special in their own right. I highly recommend this book for young children with siblings on the way to enjoy, with the help of an older reader or a parent.

Thanks to the publisher, author, and netgalley for a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. I think that this child's book is really cute! I love the illustrations. This book is about a young squirrel who is worried about being forgotten due to having a new sibling on the way. Essentially, it's about jealousy and sibling relationships, more specifically it is related to feelings about new additions to the family. The book suggests that it is best for readers 4 years or older. Cute book with a special purpose.

This a very heart-wrenching yet also super heartwarming story about a squirrel and her adjusting to life as being a new big sister.

I think Squirrel’s struggles will be something that a lot of parents and children will be able to relate to and it seems like the perfect story to read to a child who is hesitant about being a new older sibling. This book is a great way to have that child open up about their fears and nervousness surrounding the topic!

I think this story and art itself was adorable and has a wonderful message behind it!

5/5⭐️

This was a very sweet and helpful book! My daughter will be a big sister in June and I can't wait to read this to her!

I like that this book shows true emotions. As the big sister in the family, I felt the same way when I had my little sister. I like that this book shows it’s okay to be jealous, it’s natural when your world changes and a new person is added. But that doesn’t mean you friends and family don’t love you. As when she went in and everyone said they loved her. I loved the ending with the mom holding big sister squirrel and telling her how proud she was of her.

A great picture of what it is like to be the older sibling and feeling left out when a new sibling comes along. I loved how sweet all the characters are and how Squirrel comes to love and appreciate the new baby.

Very cute and fun story. Dealing with new child in a family might be a struggle for the others siblings and this is a good way to talk about it and made the children understand. I recommend it!

A strong purpose is behind this book – reassuring a young reader that just because a new arrival has added to the family doesn't mean they're not as loved as they were before. An odd assortment of animals climb the tree to the squirrels' home (seriously, a fox and a rabbit and more, all up in the branches of the oak?!) just to see the baby, leaving our heroine with a lot of doubt. Luckily the happy ending, the bright artwork and the overall warm-heartedness of it all make those fears go away. I could imagine this with fewer words for the young reader, but there is little wrong with those I saw. Four stars at least.

A very sweet book for children who are about to get siblings. Squirrel is worried that everyone will like the new baby and will forget about her, which is a fear of kids everywhere before their new siblings are born. This may help quell some fears of children when they read about Squirrel. The illustrations are cute too!
