Full of rather obvious and straight forward advice and ideas. To be brutal, there is nothing new here at all. However, sometimes it takes a book like this to spell out the obvious to help us see the light. I skim read this and then found myself picking it up now and again for reference. Helpful in a "oh of course" and "yeah I knew that!" sort of way.

If you found toddler taming useful for under fives then this is the book for five to twelve year olds, good common sense advice.
