That Baby Woke Me Up, AGAIN

That Baby Woke Me Up, AGAIN is for all those bleary-eyed families who sincerely believe that they will never again enjoy a full night of sleep. Seen through the eyes of an exhausted sibling, this book is guaranteed to bring a smile to even the most fatigued members of a sleep-deprived household. Can you count the number of nights you slept after you baby was born? Do you remember--or are you now suffering through--the cries that can mean anything from Change me now, to I'm hungry, to Time to come in and play with me? In Sherry Ellis' That Baby Woke Me Up, AGAIN, there's no question about who's the head of the household. It's the baby! The little darling who was born with feed-and-play-on-demand talents is making his message clear: I want you...and I want you now! Ms. Ellis understands the world of the sleep-deprived and felt compelled to write a book that might make every family's sleepless nights bearable. Thus, the first lines of the book: "I was sleeping in my bed and a dream was in my head when..." That baby woke me up, AGAIN!

5so true  Oct 09, 2008
I read this to my 4 year old grand- daughter the third night her baby sister was home and she related to the story very well. She wantedf me to read it every night thereafter.

I have never known a little child that is overjoyed to share the spot light. It is great that books like this tell it like it is and allow a child to react naturally to the joyous event. Someday they will be very happy.

This charming and delightful story tells of a common occurance in multi-children households. The whole family is involved with new siblings' night-time needs. The rhyming and happy text and matching illustrations tell the story in a way that will keep children reading over and over.

5A great book to read in the classroom  Feb 12, 2006
I read this book to my second grade class and found that a lot of the children identified with the narrator. It was a nice way to open a discussion on some of the challenges facing the children, when a new baby enters the house. I also found that it helped a number of my students find that they had something in common with other students in the class. I will continue to use this book with future classes.

5An excellent read-aloud book especially for sharing for older siblings having trouble getting used to a new baby  Sep 14, 2005
That Baby Woke Me Up, Again! is a delightful paperback, flat-spine picturebook. Rhyming verse and friendly illustrations tell the story of a young child who cannot sleep because a cranky baby is always crying! Exasperated, the child goes to her parents, who gently explain why babies cry, and why she should have faith that eventually the baby will sleep fast through the night. "For once you were that noisy babe / who kept us up all night; // We counted sheep, / we tried to sleep, / five, six, seven times; // but every time / it was your whine / that woke us up AGAIN!" An excellent read-aloud book especially for sharing for older siblings having trouble getting used to a new baby in the household.

Delightful!
The book is beautifully illustrated and the story hits close to home.
We have all gone through the Situations described.

I recommend this book highly.
