A great book for sharing with your firstborn while your second is still in the 'tummy house'. * The Times *

An everyday story made special by the gentle humour, simple rhyme and friendly pictures * The Independent * The whole book is written in rhyme and, fortunately, the rhymes work well and don't leave you feeling uncomfortable. They give the book a nice flowing feel as you read it aloud. As I mentioned, the imagery of the mummy's tummy being a house works well and I like the other ideas such as it being like a sort of giant bathtub or how the little boy talks to the baby through her tummy telephone!

I started to think about it as though I were a young child myself ... 'There's a house inside my mummy' was a phrase that just popped into my head, and from then on the book was a joy to write.'

Told with humour and a simple rhyming text. A wonderful, uncomplicated way of explaining things for a younger child. ( Cork News) My only quibble with the whole book is that at the end it says Look who Mummy made for us - My lovely little brother! There's no one in her tummy now...UNTIL SHE MAKES ANOTHER! which is a wonderful ending but prompted my daughter to then discuss how, once her baby brother is born (he's in the tummy house right now!) I can set about making her a sister! A delightful book, definitely recommended!
