While this is a small book for beginning readers, it will also be of great use for children not yet ready to read but who have a new baby in the family. There are four books in the series, and in this one, the little boy is very interested in all the new things coming into the house. Is it for me? he asks. But it never is. The things are always for the baby - a blanket, a teddy, a hat, a ball, a rubber duck, etc. But finally there is a present that is for him, a book that he shares with the baby: 'It is for me and the baby.' The pictures are bright and full of colour, and the small size of the book is perfect for little hands. Lots of word repetition makes if perfect for toddlers as well as for new readers. I should think all four books in the series would make a good start in helping a child adjust to a baby in the family.
