GREAT hands-on, practical guide for parents! Everything you\'ve ever wondered and the things you never had time to think about too! Humor throughout the book makes this great reading! You can sit down and read just 1-2 tips between feedings or more while the kids nap. Easy, quick topical references throughout the book. A MUST HAVE for any parent of young children!
