Review:

"The strategies from parents are little jewels scattered throughout each chapter that readers can seize on and try for themselves. The multisolution philosophy used in the book is designed to bolster parents' confidence and develop their abilities to parent, rather than foster reliance on an expert."

Atlanta Journal & Constitution

"The authors make it clear there is often more than one way to solve a problem....A welcome addition."

Young Children

"Wonderful. The combination of giving parents an understanding of what they are going through, the knowledge we have of it from research, and breaking it down into step-like decisions is a very fine format."

T. Berry Brazelton, M.D.
