“I had never seen a book that appears to cover every issue of parenting until I read Ms. Pantley’s book. I’m hesitant to recommend this book on this website, only because if you buy a copy you will most certainly no longer have a need for all the information we have here!”
~Jill Whalen, Editor, The Parentsroom

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

“If you're looking for a book that puts answers to common (and not so common) parenting challenges right at your fingertips, then look no further. This is a great book when you're looking for tips on how to handle a specific problem. It makes getting the information fast and easy, and offers multiple solutions, so that you can choose the ones that make the most sense for your child and your situation. Definitely a positive addition to every parent's library!
