Description

As six-year-old Emma anticipates the birth of her new baby brother or sister, she vividly imagines all the things they are able to do together. Emma feels able to be a big sister! Then when the baby is born, her dad tells her that it is a boy and he has something known as Down syndrome. In the end she asks, “If Isaac has this Down thing, then what can’t he do?”. Her dad thinks about it, then tells her that so long as they’re patient with him, and help him when he needs it, there probably is not anything Isaac can’t do. In this touching story, Emma helps her father as much as he helps her to realise that Isaac is the baby they dreamed of. The book concludes with a set of commonly asked questions about Down syndrome with answers for children and how it might impact their sibling and family. For ages 3-7.
