12 Revolutionary Strategies to Nurture Your Child's Developing Mind

Review:An easy-to-read, easy-to-understand, intuitive—and yet, somehow, completely game-changing—way to think about kids' brain development and our role as parents in helping them develop their whole brains. It's full of the kind of info you find yourself finding opportunities to share with other people, unsolicited.

Seven Conversations for a Lifetime of Love - Hold Me Tight

Review:This book is a must read for anyone who wants to understand the psychology of relationships- and who would like to improve their relationships with not only their significant other, but their family and friends as well.

What Happened After My Boyfriend and I Decided to Go Get Pregnant

Review:This is a very funny book, written by, in this reader's humble opinion, the funniest writer of our time, gay or straight! I started to read this book on the subway, but I had to stop because people were starring at me and asking me why I was laughing so loud and so hysterically! I finished it at home, and only stopped once when I thought that I was going to wet myself from laughing so hard.
This story is sweet, sentimental, funny, and shocking. Anyone who is a fan of Dan Savage's advise c... Read more
