Here is what people are saying about the Julius: The Baby of the World
4 Star Rating  "Very realistic"2009-06-16
- Reviewed By elotaria
Lilly, like many children, finds her baby brother doesn't live up to the pre-birth hype. He steals attention from her is what he does.

And she expresses this the way many children do - she uses her words. People claiming that their children never, ever, EVER use words like "hate" or "ugly" or "disgusting" either don't have four year olds (Lilly's approximate age), have blocked that age from their memory, are lying, are lying to THEMSELVES, or have the sweetest, nicest, most wonderful children in existence.

The rest of us live in the real world where four is the age of the potty mouth. Gosh, if I go through a day without hearing "I'm NEVER gonna be your SISTER ever AGAIN" and "I hate you, you're MEAN!" and "You're UGLY and MEAN and I'm gonna PEE ON YOU!" I start feeling foreheads! And of course my two nieces love each other very much (heaven forbid I put one in time-out for antagonizing her sister, it's the other one who whines and tries to convince me it's unnecessary and sneaks around to hand out hugs behind my back!), but like all young children they have big emotions and limited means of expressing them. (Really, I'm just happy they use their words instead of their hands.)

And of course they didn't pick up the words "hate" and "ugly" and "disgusting" from the book, they picked it up from other children and from us - who doesn't say, when they burn their toast for the third time in a row, "Ugh, I hate burned toast"? Who doesn't say, when their kid picks their nose at the table, "Ugh, that's disgusting, go wash off and don't do it again"? Who doesn't say, when they find a bug in the house, "Hey, an ugly bug! Let's put it outside!"? (Who really wants to limit their child's vocabulary and leave them hopeless when they start school?)

So yes, this is a very realistic book. And the resolution - banding together to protect her brother from an outsider - is pretty realistic too, the surplus of mice notwithstanding. I definitely recommend it for any child in the suggested age range of 4 - 8.

This is a totally awesome book for an only child who has just welcomed a new sibling. My husband and I give it to all our friends who have second babies.
 
1 Star Rating  "Disturbing"2009-03-25
- Reviewed By User: A3CWYK4EDWI2J4
I borrowed this book from the library and I'm glad I did since I had to stop in the middle because I could not believe the kind of vocabulary that it is used, in addition to the mean-spirited behavior of Lilly, the big sister of the story. I bet there is a happy ending but I'm not even curious to know. Neither is my daughter.

 
1 Star Rating  "I love Henkes other books but this one really is awful"2008-08-30
- Reviewed By User: AEMM3JC2NIM18
After reading and falling in love with Henkes' other books (Lilly's Purple Plastic Purse, Chrysanthemum, etc.) I expected to love this one as well. The other negative reviewers aren't being overly-sensitive. This book is AWFUL. The things the older sister whispers into her little brother's crib are downright horrifying. This book goes beyond simply showing the reality of childhood cruelty into the realm of normalizing sick and disturbed hatred. I started reading this book to the 4 year old boy that I nanny for and had to stop in the middle of it. He has two older sisters and the thought that he would assume this is what his sisters thought about him when he was born breaks my heart. Do your family a favor and do not buy this book, spend your time reading his other fabulous books instead.
 
5 Star Rating  "Great for siblings-to-be"2008-08-24
- Reviewed By User: AVDWJRCG306UR
Loved this book. Lilly isn't happy having a new baby in the house until a cousin dares to say the negatives that Lilly was feeling. She quickly jumps to her brother's rescue. Cute and kid friendly, great for age 3 or 4 up to second or third grade.
 
5 Star Rating  "Awesome book - fabulous gift!"2008-07-01
- Reviewed By eoshaun
This book is the perfect gift for a child that has a new baby at his or her house! The story line describes the excitement surrounding the soon-to-be birth of a baby. THEN the inconvenience, jealousy, and frustration felt after the baby actually arrives.
I've given this book to several "big brothers" and "big sisters" when I've sent a baby gift.
