    My son's favorite big brother book is called "Henry Helps with Baby" (I think).  We have 3 or 4, but this is his favorite.  We've had to explain why there's a bottle in the book when he's never seen his sister take a bottle, but he had no problems with the difference.  However, I think what he really loves is that we always substituted the names in the book with his name and the baby's name (if you know it).  We just made sure we told anyone else that read him the books to do the same thing.
    It took 3 1/2 long years, but we finally got our little miracle!

    We have Joana Cole's "I'm a Big Sister" book, there is also one for boy's.  We got it before DS was born.  I highly recommend it.

    Yes, we started using it a few months before she was born.  He loved to do the things the book talked about once she was here.  He would get diapers for me or go get her hat if we were going outside.
