By	"kim31118" (Vancouver, B.C.) - See all my reviews (TOP 1000 REVIEWER)

This book sure has hit home! There are so many tips to help me through the day, the week, the month ect... I loved the stuff on childcare, it gave me what I needed to find the right person to care for my daughter.

To the point... and entertaining... this book has it all. In fact, when I have it on the table and people are over, this is the book they gravitate to. They enjoy it, and find the advice useful.
