Each series of tips is contributed by individuals who have a lifetime's experience in the subject including doctors, teachers, nannies, child counsellors, midwives, health visitors and, of course, parents. There are over 100 line drawings in a second colour to illustrate entries as appropriate, a comprehensive cross referenced index and handy charts to help you find everything you need to know in seconds.
