Books aimed at young children re: pregnancy, siblings etc.

I just posted in a thread about this recently. There are a few good suggestions in it worth checking out.

And this one from last year

Oh, and congratulations!!

I really loved reading to DD1 and talking about the baby coming. It is such a lovely way to gently bring them in to the concept of a sibling.

I agree, The house inside Mummy is awesome...
DD1 was about same age when DD2 came along

DS is 3 and a half and loving "There is a house inside my mummy' too! It is cute with a rhyming text and quite easy to make subtle changes as you read it. We read it as "I cannot wait to meet them" etc instead of him/her because we are having twins. DS loves the story and he actually understands it really well. His fav bit is the picture of the mummy asleep on the couch - "Look, it's you Mum!"

Not a fan of "there is a house inside mummy's tummy", myself..
mind you I have yet to find s really good one, and I have been looking since I fell pregnant with baby number 2. We ended up getting 'where did i come from?' and just sort of 'self-edit' when we read it to the kids. I have found most of the books geared towards toddlers and young kids doesn't really explain anything, while books like 'where did I come from?' explain too much.
