Becoming a big brother or sister can be exciting, but also a little confusing.

In Big Feelings in a Little Body Welcoming a new baby, young readers meet Ben, a boy learning how to handle all the emotions that come with welcoming a new baby into the family. At first, Ben isn't thrilled about his new baby sister. Everyone seems to be paying attention to her-and Ben has big feelings in his little body.

Through gentle storytelling and warm, reassuring moments with his mom, Ben begins to see that it's okay to feel jealous or unsure. He discovers that when his feelings are accepted he wants to help with small tasks and spend time with his mom and baby sister reading together. Eventually Ben wants to spend time with his baby sister and learns to make room for both his feelings and his love.
