Informative and Interesting
submitted by hbc414 on September 23, 2013, 10:11pm
I found this book to be incredibly informative and far more interesting than I initially anticipated. As a prospective parent, it went a long way towards quelling a number of my fears and biases. I found myself exclaiming aloud and reading passages to my spouse on a regular basis.
Well worth reading.
