For many young children, pacifier weaning is a major milestone.

The focus is on minimizing stress and drama, dealing with feelings of loss and frustration, finding fun things to do without a pacifier, and finally being pacifier-free.

A section for adults provides discussion and activity guides in both English and Spanish that reinforce the book's message.
