Absolutely The Best Kid-Care book around

After virtually memorizing this book to get my girls safely to where they are now (third and seventh grades), it is the number one resource I keep coming back to. Sure, there are other books that are more detailed about specific topics, but this is just a good over-all guide. I bought it for my ex-husband and now, years later, for my daughter-in-law.

best parenting book

This book is just as great as her book for babyhood. I use it all the time to find creative ways to solve kid problems.
