Educator Information
Recommended for ages 3 to 5.
This book has areas for readers to add information (writing, drawings, collages) straight into the text and weave in their own story; therefore, it may not make an ideal classroom resource. Perfect for individual use, homeschooling, working on together as a family, gifting to a child who is welcoming a new baby into their family, etc.
The note at the beginning of the story reads as follows: "Weave your own story into this book! Add lines to describe the people in your own family and community who were excited to welcome your small person. And use this space to collage in any photos or drawings."
