I checked the Canadian edition of this book out from the library. Perhaps reading it my 40th week of pregnancy wasn't the best of timing, but I appreciate the contents. I'll need to refer back to lots of situations referenced once the babe becomes ambulatory. Clear, step-by-step photos of what to do in a variety of terrifying (sorry, very pregnant!) situations.

I read this with my kids as part of our schooling this year!
