Gives wise, kind and simple advice on trying to do better with children

thought-provoking...practical, easy-to-read, it offers valuable insights and guides...an interesting read worth dipping into on a regular basis

If you want to feel more energetic, be more creative, and connect more deeply with others, this book is for you ... smart, engaging, and filled with sound advice

Clare takes away the old wives' tales, the nonsense and guilt, and makes the whole process work as it is meant to

It is, for me, professionally gratifying to have a book written by someone who brings such a balanced approach to both breast- and bottle-feeding. Too often mothers are given so much differing advice as to what they should, or should not do. This book will help a new mother make her own choice and give her expert advice, which will help her with the successful feeding of her baby

This has to be one of THE best parenting books I have ever read. It covers toddlers to teenagers, light hearted but yet deadly serious and there really is something for every parent to relate to! It was so addictive and appropriate for me with three girls, that I had recommended it to more than 20 people when I was only a quarter of the way through it! All parents should read it.

Simple, accessible tools which cover everything from getting your child to clean his teeth to picky eaters and bullying.

Reading this book is like having a chat with your friends or with other mums at the crèche or the school gate.

A no-nonsense guide to running a family – whatever your personality.
