Summary: THE WONDER OF A NEW BABY
Review: .The illustrations in this book are powerful but very beautiful. All the farmyard creatures are wide - eyed, with warm, welcoming friendly faces. They all know something is going on. They all have simple questions to ask. There is something mysterious happening. Their suspense and curiosity grows. The arrival of a new baby in the farmhouse is a source of wonderment and delight.

Summary: Beautiful artwork, rhyming text make this one a winner!
Review: My 15-month-old son loves this book's barnyard animals and rhyming text about a mysterious newcomer to the farm. Is the "NEW ONE" a duckling or a piglet? Nope! Take a tour of the farm and find out for yourself with this delightful book. This has been a great book for introducing my son to the idea that there's a "NEW ONE" coming to our homestead soon. It'll also make a great gift for another little boy I know who's going to be a big brother soon.

Summary: Great for a toddler with a sibling on the way
Review: This book has incredible illustrations. They are what make the book worth noting. The animals are drawn from unusual perspectives. The horse looms over you (hard to do in a book, I'll admit!), the sparrow perches rather in your face. Small children--even tiny children--will be able to enjoy this book because of the pictures. The story is about a new baby that has arrived on a farmstead--that is what the bird heard. The rhyming text is sweet but predictable. This would be a great book for a toddler with a sibling on the way. (I know my toddler was hoping for one after we read this.) Note, however, that it is a simple book, probably best enjoyed by the under-four crowd.
