Editorial Reviews

Library Journal

In this excellent companion to her 2002 parenting classic, The No-Cry Sleep Solution, Pantley debunks many myths about children and sleep, including the prevalent theory that children should be able to sleep independently through the night from the time they are a few months old, supporting her claims with data from the National Sleep Foundation and her own surveys. She also provides a plethora of examples about how perfectly natural it is for toddlers and preschoolers to have sleep issues. However, parents will be thrilled to hear that just because something is normal doesn't mean they have to live with it until things change on their own. She addresses problems and solutions for a wide variety of sleep-related issues, including night waking, nighttime nursing, waking up early, bad dreams, sleeping in the parent's bed, and nap-time problems. This is hope condensed for the tired parent; essential for all public libraries.-Kari Ramstrom, MLIS, Plymouth, MN Copyright 2005 Reed Business Information.
