Walk through the safety check for each room of the house and use the key, inexpensive ideas to make your home a safe place for your little one(s)! 
What merits calling the doctor and what are symptoms of problems readily solved by a loving parent with a little right knowledge ... see the chapter on "illness"! Want to avoid making battles out of mealtime or sleeptime...see the awesome section on "Sleeping Habits" and the extensive tips on Feeding Time from "nursing" to "fussy eaters" and "feeding toddlers" to "clean up"! 
The authors understand that parents are too busy raising their family to read entire books on "how to parent!" Mother Knows Best dishes out wisdom in short BITE-SIZED capsules, most of which are no longer than a short paragraph! An index by topic and chapter breakdowns by age (when appropriate) help you search easily for specific answers. The book lends itself well to "bathroom reading" for those few periodic, necessary moments you are "alone."

St.Martin's Press

When Ivy League educated newspaper columnist Amy Friedman walked into a prison to write about life inside, she never expected to fall in love with a man serving time for murder. But that's what happened. Desperado's Wife tells the story of their seven year marriage and what happens to those who love someone inside. David Dow, death row lawyer wrote: Maybe Amy Friedman is not really fearless, but you could not tell that from her memoir, which grabs your shirt in its fist on page one and forces you to see humanity in places most of us are too scared to go. Everybody who has ever given up on anyone must read this book.
