Maybe the Baby

This is a cute book about a trio of dogs who panic when they find out that mom is having a baby. They imagine that everything will go wrong. Maybe the Baby will like the cats better etc. Of course when the baby comes, it turns out all their worrying was for naught. What a great little story for children who are worried about mom's and dad's attention when the new baby arrives. I really liked this story and my grandson did as well. He thought the dogs were pretty silly. He has a 6 month old baby sister and we were able to equate that to the story. The illustrations were done in muted colours with cute drawings, almost dreamlike. A good book for family libraries.

As someone who's had dogs for years and only recently had their first child, I was excited to read this book. The watercolor illustrations are very pretty and it's a good story, but the cadence feels a bit off. The overall theme is nice and would give children an idea of what it's like for the family pets to experience the addition of a new baby. Very sweet!

This was a lovely book. It’s a dog's point of view about having a new baby in the house. Of course they are worried. Things will change, but will it be fun? Will they get annoyed? Will they have to go live with the neighbor mouse. It’s an adorable rhyming story. I love the interior pictures, but feel the cover needs work. I can not explain why, just that I think it does.
