From the Publisher
Working for a Publisher my sister-in-law asked me to help her through the mess of books out there on child rearing and just send her one or two to guide her from the beginning with my new niece. As I have not had kids yet I could only point her in the direction of Zig Ziglar and assume his book on child care was as good as the rest of his work. My sister-in-law couldn't put it down.
