Very cute! 
2006-11-09
An outpouring of beautiful emotions even for a very short read! With great pictures that capture true love, patience and understanding.
Great! 2005-10-02
This is a wonderful book told from a kid's perspective! Great! We have 2 kids with Down syndrome, so this subject is very dear to our hearts. It even discusses the use or misuse of the word retarded. Loved it!
Nice pictures, assumptions questionable 
2000-04-30
My daughter loves the pictures of little Jai, but the text is too detailed for young readers on one page, appropriate on all the others. My biggest concern is the line "there is nothing we can do to make Down syndrome go away" -- which teaches siblings the assumption that it should. My son has Down syndrome and I wouldn't change him for anything, nor do I want his sisters to think that we would prefer him to be someone else.
