When you're a baby, it's not good because you don't have any hair. (I have long hair like a princess.)
In this adorable picture book, the very competent and smugly superior older sister clearly knows it all. Perhaps just a little jealous of all the attention being shown to the new member of the family, she regales her younger sibling with the things she can do that a baby can't. But…she also sweetly promises to offer comfort on scary nights and to teach and explain all the things a baby needs to know. And, she's wise enough to realize that the baby will grow up and that the two will someday reminisce about "the olden days when you were a baby." How to Be a Baby… is a delight, and a paean to big sisters everywhere! Ages 4-8.
