Summary: Great Book
Comment: I think this is a very good informative book. It explains things in a simple and understandable manner.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Not what I'd hoped
Comment: This book is pretty general and its sections are broken up into newborn, 0-3 months, 4-7 months and so on. What I wanted was a book that talked about each month individually since baby's change and develop so much so quickly. This book is just too general for me. It does have good info, just not as much as I'd like.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Highly recommended!
Comment: As a father, I have had to put up with several books that are "meant" for dads. In Norway, that means having to read through a lot of semi-funny and useless knowledge.
This book is exactly what I have been looking for!
It is to the point and easy to read, with a good reference section. Covers everything I wanted to know. Highly recommended for all parents!
Customer Rating:
Summary: Pretty Good Resource
Comment: This book is not as great as I had hoped. I am a first time mom and wanted a book that would help when I have questions, like how to help baby feel better when he has a cold, when to take him to the doctor, and how to get through teething. This book did not really offer much on what I've had questions about so far. I would choose something else next time.
Customer Rating:
Summary: Authoritative, compact, no-nonsense
Comment: I really appreciate this "baby owner's manual." Published by a large professional group effort of the American Academy of Pediatrics, it is down to earth, up-to-date, and clearly written. They cover everything-- physical, social, intellectual, and emotional development, safety issues including products and food safety, and of course, health information.
I just call it 'the book.'
Highly recommended, especially for first-time parents. Great value for the price. (Who can spend more when there are diapers to buy???)
