The cat's meow of guides...
As anyone who knows me knows, I have cats. I seem to attract them, well, like cats! I have cat joys and cat tragedies especially prominent in the past few years, with two outdoor disappearances and one indoor death, yet with wonderful new additions and the experience of sharing my home with seven new kittens born under my desk one summer, and five more from a different stray the next summer. I ...

best argument for natural parenting
Before I ever had a baby, I wondered why the US has such an abysmal infant mortality rate. According to the CIA factbook, the US ranked 42 worldwide in 2008, with a rate three times higher than the lowest countries. The US also has some of the highest rates of adult psychological disorders like sleep problems, ADHD, depression and PTSD. This book reviews the vast amount of research suggesting ...

It is filled with valuable information and should be a must read for anyone who has or is even remotely thinking about getting a small dog. Like all her books, this one is well written in Ms. Arden's easy to follow and understand style. I ...

A Must-Read for all Caregivers!
It is about time that someone tackled the issues that caregivers face. It can often be a lonely and confusing time.

This a well-crafted, easy to read and understand book that all caregivers should read. I wish it had been ...

food for the soul
I loved this book, it was really beautifully written, Sarah has a lovely style of writing. Her own personal stories were my favourite parts of the book but this book is much more about how to enrich our everyday lives with buddhism. The principles are outlined simply and applied to the painfully banal trials of parenting with compassion and humour. Forget any religious leanings, I recommend this ...

I Wish This Book Had Been Available Years Ago
I acquired a rabbit in March of 2001, rescuing him from an uncertain fate in a vacant lot. In September of 2001, he ate the buttons off my remote control. If I had had this book back then, I'd still have buttons on my remote. Yes, the remote control is a favored chew toy of a busy bunny, acording to Ms. Moore. I believe it. He has since bitten the "on/off" button on the remote for my cable, too. ...

Lisa Wogan
Skipstone Press

For dog lovers, and those seeking general wisdom.
Wogan's book is highly enjoyable (and informative), from cover to cover. So many wisdoms, so little time. From "At Home" to "On the Trail" the chapters cover it all. It goes far beyond the Dog Park, and at times, into your heart. And of course, the amazing photography of Bev Sparks captures the true spirit of our canine counterparts. Tops!

QUITE LIKELY THE BEST BOOK OUT THERE ON THIS SUBJECT.
If you own a dog then you really should have this book on your shelf. If you have only one book concerning the treatment and care of dogs, then this is the one you should own. I wish there were a way to give this one more that five stars. The infomation contained in this volume enhances the ownership of these wonderful animals, can help make their, and your, lives so much better, and can ...

Caring for Parents by Delehanty and Ginzler
This book is an excellent reference for adults with older parents progressively requiring more care from their children and other care-providers. Generally, the family provides up to 80% of care for the elderly. In my experience, this is true due to the high cost of nursing facilities and the personalized care many older people prefer. The authors mention that advocacy for the elderly ...

Best Child healthcare book -- remedies really work!
The advice in this book is comprehensive and really excellent! I was able to reverse my 4 year old daughters ear infections to the amazement of her ENT. After a prognosis of "andenoid removal and tube insertion " required, after just 4 weeks the diagnosis is " no surgery necessary" ! A phone consultation with the doctor helped me to better decide which remedies, and the dosages, that were ...
