Editorial Reviews

"In these confusing days of competing ideas, any book on parenting espousing common sense is worthy of public consumption. 100 Things I Wish I Knew In My Baby's First Year is one of those books. Clear, concise and rich with ideas."

Gary Ezzo

“What a difference! Chocked full of practical advice from parents who survived three children under the age of one. This book is not only informative, but fun!”

Linda Acredolo

“An absolute must for all new parents-to-be! Clearly written with practical information for every aspect of the first year experience.”

Patricia Stevens

"This manual is filled with many tips that a seasoned parent may take for granted but that we all had to learn when we were first timers. In addition, there are ideas that are born of a child rearing philosophy that respects the unfolding of a natural process of development and educates parents about fostering it."

Dana Chidekel

"These parent/authors offer sound advice without implying there is only one right way to do anything. The reader is given a variety of choices and some innovative suggestions. For example, they offer a rationale for teaching babies sign language. This book will serve as a pressure-free asset for new parents.”
