Muito boa perspectiva de uma autora inglesa sobre a criação de filhos

[Annamária · Rating 5 out of 5]

It is the most funny book I ever read about families with kids between the ages of 3-7. Good thing is that even mothers can grow with these books, there seems to be one for every stage of motherhood. I got at least three new ideas that I am implementing with my kids regarding holidays, sick days and siblings. I recommend reading this to every mother!

It's a fun read- a book I will have to return to when my kid(s) are a lot older and since the first isn't even born yet... I will keep it at the back of the shelf when I will def. need its advice as I won't remember it later!

Amusant et plein d'observations justes, toutefois il est fort possible que vous ayez déjà eu des expériences similaires si vous avez un ou plusieurs enfants.
