About this title

Review

"A comprehensive and practical guide which enables parents to understand their child's sleep pattern and to solve most common childhood sleep problems by choosing from a range of clearly explained and easy to follow techniques." -- Dr. Gregory Stores, Park Hospital for Children, University of Oxford

"Sleep problems can be very disruptive for everyone in the family. Often there is tremendous frustration, especially for the parents as they struggle to understand what is going on as they try first one tactic and then another, often without success. What parents are looking for is clear, sensible, and effective advice on exactly what to do, and when and how to do it. This book offers the answer to their sleepless nights. Dr Lyn Quine is a world authority on childrens sleep problems and she has successfully translated years of research and clinical experience into an easy-to-read guide, full of information and practical help. Parents can feel confident that the step-by-step programmes described here are soundly based in scientific study and yet they can easily be used at home by any parent." -- Colin Espie, Professor of Psychological Medicine, Gartnavel Royal Hospital, University of Glasgow
