Rating:  - Was Okay
I actually borrowed this from the library and read it before deciding to buy, so I knew what I was buying. Still, it's just okay. It has some really good information, but I didn't feel it really said step-by-step what you should do.

Rating:  - Healthy sleep habits, happy child
You must buy this book to help with your child's sleeping! Buy it as soon as the baby is born so you understand your child's sleep habits. The earlier you understand the way your child's mind and body works, the easier it will be for them to sleep!
Rating:  - Informative
I bought this book on a recommendation because I was having trouble getting my child to sleep. As I was reading the book I found myself appalled by the practices this author was suggesting. If you are all for the cry it out method in any shape or form this is by all means the way to go. I wouldn't recommend this book.
Rating: - Finally real scientific answers
This book is empowering. Finally, not just a Dr. but a sleep expert explains how and why to get my children in bed.
Also he seems have not political or social agenda. It's just the facts. I love it and I already feel better knowing I have a plan.

Best book I have read on the issues ... Read More
