Awful
I got this book because I heard such positive things about it. While there is some good developmental information (that can be found elsewhere) this book was a waste of time and money unless you follow the standard American diet. As a vegan nursing mother, I found it totally offensive.DO NOT BUY IF YOU ARE VEGAN OR VEG...

Totally Worth It!
For the last couple of months I have have read and re-read the Chapter on "Feeding Your Older Baby." Many days it has reminded me that I am doing the right thing by letting my baby experience food even if he doesn't actually eat much. I have looked ahead to "Feeding Your Toddler" and "...Preschooler" and feel certain t...

Too long, too rigid, but not a bad principle
I originally bought this book right as my child was almost ready to start solid foods at about 5 months old. She is now 17 months old and I have just recently managed to finish this gigantic and dull tome. I am not a slow reader, this book is just painful to slog thru, it did not hold my attention at all because the au...

Worth reading
This book does come off as a bit redundant but that's what it takes to really get the message across; after all, this guide doesn't teach you tricks on how to get your kids to eat, it teaches the PARENTS how to feed properly. Therefore, redundancy is essential. I can't honestly say that I am "generous" with salt or fat...

Don't waste your money
This came along with the coursebook and it is very bare bones. For one thing, it does not provide the gender for nouns. This is a major oversight as gender is important in Portuguese and any other romance language. Get the Harper Collins Portuguese Concise Dictionary instead.

Don't judge a book by it's cover - looks nice, poor function
Don't even waste your money on this machine. I bought this machine about a year ago and it's ready for the garbage. When callers call, we can hear them and they can't hear us. As for the faxing/copying function, it now just prints out blank pages, even though the ink film is fairly new. When trying to fax, it always ja...

This is a HORRIBLE product - do NOT buy!
The battery on the handset died within months and a replacement is at least $40! The ink in the copier/fax smudges everywhere and ran out after 6 months of very little use. Replacement is another $20. The navigation on the phone menu was designed by a dyslexic third grader and the reception is terrible. Nuff said!

Well written, informative, humorous and thought provoking.
"A Question of Balance" is an owners handbook for the human body. We all make choices every day and those choices good or bad are what will determine if we go towards health or disease.

I dig this album. It is melodic rhythm-driven death-metal, shedding some of the aggression of past albums. The music is tight and the vocals sound much like the Cookie Monster.

Mathematical impossibility does not deter some people.
