Contains some interesting facts on research and teaching kids signing. But this is also included in Joseph Garcia's Sign With Your Baby, and it includes more useful, practical information about introducing signing to your baby, as well as actual ASL signs, not made up ones, as in Acredolo's book. Amazon usual has great deal on video-book-flashcard kit. Loved that! Also more useful was buying an ASL pocket dictionary, once little one's vocabulary takes off, and can't find all words kid is interested in in these texts.

What a great latina-girl role model for my little one. And great exposure to spanish, problem-solving skills. ...

I inherited this book from my sister-in-law, who got it from her best friend, our children all love this well worn book. I started reading this to my liitle girl at 2 months, now, we bring the book out and she immediately starts grinning. In fact to get her to smile while a photographer was taking her picture, all we had to do was recite the first few lines, (which we of course know by heart now) the photographer was amazed that she smiled on cue every time. She's 4 and a half months old, and she's learning to turn the pages! Let me at the rest of those Sandra Boynton books!

I have been looking for books to share with my baby, to ensure she grows up bilingual, and Clare Beaton's series of books have been delightful. Even for a newborn, the bright contrasting colors enchant her, and I can prompt myself with the book's vocabulary.

I'm a naturopathic medical student, studying homeopathy, and this book was indispensible at giving both a clear overall impression of the various major constitutional types, and also a detailed outline for reference at the end of each chapter. I know I will be using this book often in my practice. Not only does he draw from various sources (repertories and materia medica) but also adds indisoensable original information from his successful practice.

His broad profiles of major constitutional remedies give the reader a good overall picture of the personality type and therefore ways of remembering facts about the archetype, by having a unifying theory for each remedy. This was extremely helpful as a student of homeopathy! And someone who seems to have lost the ability to memorize around the age of 25.
