She's at it again, that big sister telling you all about everything: this time it's helpful tips on finding the perfect job, how to conduct yourself in an interview, what to wear, what not to wear, etc. Needless to say, this is advice you may never have heard before--which of course makes it invaluable.

if you're in NYC on Wednesday June 24th at 10AM come along for storytime at Barnes and Noble 150 East 86th Street (and 2nd Ave) and get your own personalized copy of two very important new books (we'd love to see you for some fun and laughs and very high jinks!):
- one tells you all about how to get hitched (or at least pretend to if you're only waist high)
- and the other tells you all about how to behave (if you're a pig especially)
These are essential things to know. And you need to know them. (Don't you?)

Here's the perfect book for kids who play pretend and throw mock weddings, and also for grown-ups who are actual brides-to-be.
Our know-it-all narrator is at it again, in this companion to the New York Times bestselling How To Be A Baby... By Me, The Big Sister. Take it from the six-year-old “bride-to-be”: No one will marry you if you don’t ever brush your hair and it looks like a bird’s nest back there. And never get married when it’s dark, because you might not see the groom, and marry the wrong person. When you have found your Own True Love, you must ask permission. “Can I marry you please?” you say. “Yes, please,” he says.

so says SCHOOL LIBRARY JOURNAL in their lovely review of HOW TO GET MARRIED... BY ME, THE BRIDE. Quoted below:
LLOYD-JONES, Sally. How to Get Married by Me, the Bride. illus. by Sue Heap. unpaged. CIP. Random/Schwartz & Wade Bks. Tr $16.99. ISBN 978-0-375-84118-7; PLB $19.99. ISBN 978-0-375-94118-4. LC 2007037839.
PreS-Gr 2—The all-knowing narrator from How to Be a Baby—by Me, the Big Sister (Random, 2007) is back with more advice in this fun-filled guide to finding the perfect mate and planning a wonderful wedding. Using the same step-by-step format found in the earlier title, the precocious little girl shares her observations on what to look for in a spouse (nose picking is not acceptable) as well as what details are important to remember when planning for the big day. The advice is delivered in a running commentary as well as in lists of boxed text. Good places to get married include a castle, up a tree, or your playroom. The acrylic cartoons are filled with fun details that match the lively charm of the text. After the festivities, "the bride" says goodbye to the guests, skips all the way home holding her daddy's hand, and tells him all about her day. This book is sure to be a hit with fans of the first title as well as with the "FANCY NANCY" (HarperCollins) crowd.—Maura Bresnahan, High Plain Elementary School, Andover, MA
... the bossy big sister narrator is at it again... and this time? Well it's HOW TO GET MARRIED: by Me, the Bride. (Ably assisted, of course, by that little baby--who at one point ends up wearing a moustache.)
It's the companion to the New York Times Bestseller, HOW TO BE A BABY: by Me, the Big Sister and it's coming in March--just in time for spring.
The publisher says: "Here is the perfect book for kids who play pretend and throw mock weddings, and also for grown-ups who are actual brides-to-be. "
