My hero

I love Dr. T. Berry Brazelton! He puts things in such basic terms that you almost want to slap your head and say "why didn't I think of that?". It is a must for anyone with children, even the "veteran" moms and dads. I also VERY HIGHLY recommend "Touchpoints" by Dr. Brazelton. It is my bible.
