Great book! January 6, 2009
This book has a lot of helpful advice my daughter is ten months old and most of the time she goes to sleep on her own without even crying as soon as I lay her down. I'm not very strong when it comes to letting her cry it out my husband had to be the mean one. It's really hard to get through that part but it's so worth it! I believe every new mother would benefit greatly from this book!

Straight to the point. No verbal garbage here. September 6, 2008
I liked the way this book was organized, and found the illustrations useful. Joe Frost's no-nonsense approach to child care makes her a favorite in this family, and I gave her book to my daughter who is expecting her first child in December.

Wonderful Book Fast Service! August 28, 2008
I gifted this book to my sister, Aimee' (first time mom), and not only did it arrive the next day when I only paid for regular shipping, but it made all of baby's sleeping problems go away. Aimee' can now sleep through the night EVERY night. Using techniques in this book is like taking a sleeping pill... definitely a good thing for any mom out there!

Not good enough.... August 24, 2008
I'm having my first baby in two months so I've been reading quite a bit of books. Got this book and read it maybe half way there, nothing was interesting enough to keep reading it. It's not a bad book it's just not good. There are a ton of better books out there, skip this one if you can.

Better books out there August 6, 2008

I was very disappointed in this book. For one there were several typos. Also her views on breastfeeding aren't very accurate. I think she is a great nanny but she hasn't been a Mom and that is very evident in this book.
