About Hello in There!: A Big Sister’s Book of Waiting

"Hello in There!: A Big Sister’s Book of Waiting" by the acclaimed Jo Witek is a heartwarming and interactive children's book, perfect for families in Malta and Gozo anticipating a new arrival. This oversized hardback, from the author and illustrator of the bestselling "In My Heart," beautifully captures the wonder and excitement of waiting for a new sibling. Follow the charming protagonist as she eagerly embraces her role as a big sister, singing songs (loudly!) to her sibling-to-be and sharing all the delightful things awaiting them in the outside world, from cupcakes and strawberries to swimming. With its gentle humour and engaging flaps, this book helps young readers, especially those aged 3-8, understand and celebrate the upcoming family addition, fostering crucial social-emotional skills.

Published by Abrams, this delightful story is part of the "Growing Hearts" series, dedicated to a toddler's emotional development. The quaint line drawings and lovely patterns create a breezy, lighthearted atmosphere, while a variety of playful flaps add an interactive element, showing the new baby blissfully tucked away in its mama's belly. Praised by Publishers Weekly for its "whimsical, scraggly, illustrations" and by Kirkus Reviews for its sturdy pages, "Hello in There!" is designed to withstand many eager perusals. It's an ideal English children's book for preparing a child for their new brother or sister, making the transition a joyful and celebrated experience for the whole family.
