'Sometimes you pick up a book that has the power to take you well beyond its pages - and this book is one of those.' Barbara Braxton, The Bottom Shelf
'A charming story of siblings, of welcoming a new baby into the household, of allaying the fears that may be harboured, told through the idea of size.' Fran Knight, ReadPlus
'A different perspective on a child coming to terms with a new baby coming into the family . . . cleverly tap ping into children's propensity to take things literally . . . Blair's magical text and endearing illustrations provide the reassurance prospective brothers and sisters need to cope with their new role in the family.' Canberra Times
'With its gorgeous illustrations, When I'm Big is a completely new and fun take on becoming a brother or sister. Karen has cleverly used a classic case of children taking something adults say literally, as a tool to open up a conversation with your little one about what to expect. It's a must-read for any little (and big) person about to welcome an even smaller person into their home.' KIDSPOT
Filled with humour and imagination, When I'm Big is a delightful, warm-hearted celebration of becoming a sibling. From award-winning picture-book creator Karen Blair comes the perfect gift for every family welcoming a new baby.
Everyone keeps telling me
I'm going to be a big girl soon,
but I wonder . . . Just how BIG will I be?
