I bought this book because of how much I loved the What to Expect When Your Expecting and am equally pleased. This book can answer pretty much any questions you may have about your baby all the way to the first year. It keeps you from wanting to call the pediatrician every 5 minutes. I read a little bit every night, since we're expecting our first child, and already feel more confident on the information I've learned. see less

This book is my baby bible! It covers all topics you can think of and more. I would recommend this book to any parent, especially to read while expecting. It covers the basics and has chapters for each month for baby and what to expect in each month of development. I will definitely buy more of the what to expect series. see less

I [..] love it so I decided that I would purchase this book. It is full of great information and answers a lot of the questions that I have as a first time mom. If babies came with a manual, this would be it! see less

I got this book when my daughter was about 7 months old and wasn't sleeping at all. It made a huge difference in her sleep habits and her overall personality. Now I use it with my newborn son and find that it is the most useful baby book I've owned. see less

Definately consider this as a must read! I have seen a huge improvement in my son's sleeping habits and happiness level. I have also begun to realize WHY my child needs so much sleep, and how to get him to easily go down for bed/naps. My 3 mo old is sleeping 11 hours at night and takes long morning and afternoon naps and a short evening nap. He is always so happy when he wakes up! Smiling and ready to play. see less

This book has a TON of information. It gets a little statistical sometimes, which I think I would have appreciated more reading before the baby got here. Instead, I bought it in desperation trying to get my colicky baby to sleep and found it hard to absorb and/or make choices on the information and options when I was already massively sleep-deprived. Granted, the book explains how to go about reading it if you are already sleep-deprived and dealing with an extremely fussy baby; I just know that if you are an information person, like me, you will do a little better with this book if you can get it before baby arrives. Overall, though, it really is a fantastic resource for getting babies to sleep! see less

Not only is this book entertaining but SO informative! It includes a 2 week "survival guide" that my husband & I lived by, with our first born. It was so helpful to remind you of what was important & that you needed to forget the rest! We had so many questions with our first child & this book really answered them all. I even used it in the middle of the night, when he was 9 months old, running fever & vomiting. Which was very scary for first time parent. So I was very thankful I had something to refer to! The grandparents even picked it up occasionally, flipped through it & was amazed at what they learned. Now that our son is almost 2, I just purchased Toddler 411 & I look forward to learning from that one. Enjoy! see less

My daughter had colic her first 4 months and it was very difficult. Nothing could calm her once she started screaming. I tried everything. I read this book and did the "S's" and it really calmed her down quickly. I was AMAZED. Any parent with a newborn needs to read this. see less

This book has a lot of helpful tips, but is a little repetitive. Quick and easy read. I like that it has exact methods to follow and explains them all with great detail. see less

Dr. Karp knows his stuff. After reading his book and watching the DVD, I was amazed. He offers simple advice that makes total sense. I just wished I had read this sooner. see less

I read this book and through the exercises not only did I better train my dog, but it helped me to develop a closer bond to my dog. I definitely approved of the positive approach in training the book uses as well as enjoyed the personal touch the author gives the book by talking about her own dog experiences. My dog got rid of some bad habits (like chewing my son's stuffed animals) and together we developed some good habits like playing games like "Find It" together. I have become a "dog lover" through this book and me and my dog have developed a mental as well as emotional connection. I could definitely see myself adding another dog to the family in the future (and I may even consider a senior dog as I never before realized their wonderful companionship potential). Great book. I recommend it for people who want to develop an even closer relationship to their dogs! see less

This is a very informative and comprehensive book for dog owners and would-be dog owners. I was particularly impressed with the section on how to adopt a dog and how much it would costs to own it. The author's style of writing is simple and personal which makes it very simple to follow and easy to understand. The book offers a wealth of practical information for dog owners. Opportunity to discuss the book and dog problems with the author on her website is a unique feature that comes with the book and makes the book even more valuable. see less

This book is perfect for the average dog owner who wants an easy to read, easy to understand book that will help them have that "well-behaved dog" or for the person who wants to learn more advanced training. After reading this book, I almost felt like I could train any dog! It has good step-by-step instruction that makes sense. The author's approach is kind and gentle, but firm as well. You will get great results if you follow her instruction. This is a book every dog owner should own. From just the family pet to a more advanced obedience training, it has it all. You will not regret owning this book. And, the author's offer to answer questions on her website, gives you even more personalized help. You will love it! I think it is so good, I plan to give it to my friends, who own dogs, as a gift. see less

I bought this item for a friend, and she loved it. She has said the book is informative for finding the perfect bra. She commented that the only bad thing about this book is there isnt much help finding your proper bra size, since some methods dont work. Other than that, its a well written, easy to read book. Target did a wonderful job on the shipping as well. see less
