You're the Oldest!, by Mireille d'Allancé, is a tender and realistic story that addresses the challenges of being an older brother or sister with sensitivity and humor. Through a relatable narrative and everyday situations, the book gives voice to the feelings of children facing the change when a new member joins the family.


The most remarkable thing about this story is how it validates the protagonist's emotions—from jealousy to frustration—and lovingly shows how the role of "grown-up" can also be an opportunity to grow, nurture, and feel special in other ways. The expressive illustrations reinforce the emotional tone and help young readers identify with the characters.


Ultimately, You Are the Oldest! is a valuable and comforting read to accompany important family processes, offering emotional support and a positive perspective on the bonds between siblings.
