Encouraging and Helpful Aid
"Brenda Nixon's new book is not a "look at everything you're doing wrong" instructional guide for parents. Rather, it is an encouraging and helpful aid to get your through those challenging early years. She answers your questions, treats mom and dad as important partners in the parenting process, and she does it all with the spirit of a teacher and coach. I highly recommend Brenda's book to all new parents."
