By Sally Lloyd-Jones, Sue Heap (Illustrator)
Book #1 in the How To. . . series
Discover the world through a big sister's eyes as she guides you from babyhood to cleverness.
A know-it-all big sister shares her wisdom on growing up, from eating books to becoming clever. As she narrates the journey from babyhood to childhood, she reveals the quirky truths of being little. What happens when you outgrow the pacifier and start making memories? Join this delightful exploration of growing up and the bond between siblings, where every page is a step towards understanding the world.
The New York Times praised this best-selling picture book as “adorable, original, well-illustrated and fabulous.” In this first book in the How-To Series (which includes How To Get Married and How to Get a Job), the know-it-all big sister narrator tells it like it is: When you’re a baby you don’t read books. You eat them. You don’t know how old you are, or even if you’re a boy or a girl. And you have to keep a special plug in your mouth to stop your scream from coming out. But one day, you won’t be little anymore, and then you’ll be taller and smarter, and actually quite clever. Like the narrator. And you’ll be able to share memories of what it was like when you were little with your incredible Big Sister.
