...and the relationship between big and little siblings.
I've just read this to DD2 and DS for their bedtime story and thought what a great book it is for both discussing differences between us and the relationship between siblings when a new baby arrives.
Our Stripy Baby by Gillian Shields
It tells the story of the Moon family who are spotty and then baby Zack arrives who is stripy. Big sister Zara wants to send him back because he's different and doesn't do the things her friend Molly's baby brother does. However Zara discovers all the things that he can do and wonders whether being different isn't such a bad thing after all.
