What Makes It Uncommon

Oh, Brother!

Kids sometimes see the arrival of a new baby in the family as a cause for jealousy, but this charming, customized hardcover book can help those new big brothers see how they fit in the picture. Written by Laura Numeroff, author of If Your Give a Mouse a Cookie, the book explains all the things a big brother can do for his little siblings. Big bro will be delighted to see his name appear on the cover and throughout the story, along with a special dedication message from you on the front page.

The book is written as if regaling the new sibling with all the loving things the older child will do. This helps to model positive sibling interaction without feeling preachy, and also provides an opportunity for big brothers to share the book once the little one is old enough to enjoy story time.

The pages are warmly illustrated by Lynn Munsinger, with cute tigers, bears, pigs having adventures with their little brothers or sisters. Printed in the USA.

Beautiful Book!

I can't wait to give this to my great-grandson for his 3rd birthday in a few weeks; the personalization is so special, and the illustrations are just beautiful. I think his parents will love it as much as I do.

"Cutest, sweetest gift ever..." said my client.

I am a real estate agent who had an expecting client. Her son came on all of our property showings, and was always so happy and patient. I just want to get him a personalized gift that was relevant, and this did the trick!

How are the big brother and big sister versions comparable? Do they offer the same examples of how older siblings help? I want to get a copy for an older brother and older sister, but if they're the same book, I'll only get one.

Verified reply from Jasmine

Hello! They are very much the same, one is just a boy version and one is a girl. They are the exact same besides the character.

  • Lone Tree, CO

How many pages are included in the book?

Verified reply from Norma

22 pages

  • Va

I read the one page that's shown as an example, it sounds like it's written more towards the younger child, not the bigger brother. Saying, look what your big brother can do for you. Is that the way the whole book is written?

Verified reply from Valerie

Yes, that is the format of this book. It's meant to be shared and enjoyed by both siblings.

Would a 6 year old enjoy this book... Or is it geared towards younger children?

Verified reply from Jeffrey

If you mean that the six year old will soon have a little brother or sister, we believe the book will be age appropriate. As the younger sibling gets older, they would be able to enjoy it as well!

  • Augusta, GA

My best friend has twin boys and she is about to have a new baby. I would like to get this book for them, could it be adapted to say 2 children's names?

Verified reply from Colleen

Thank you for your question. Being as this book is specialized from one big brother to a little brother it can not be formatted for 2 big brothers.
