"This is my most-used cookbook.
The recipes are healthy and fairly quick, and I like a lot of them. There seems to be an asian bent to the ingredients. I don't use the put-together meals, just pick and choose from the dishes.

I enjoyed this book the most at the beginning, and became less engaged as mnade my way to the long conclusion. It is a fun mystery-type novel, told from a the perspective of a book-loving character, and I enjoyed relating to her passion for reading and her introverted personality. If only it had held my attention to the end, I would have given it 4 stars....less

I found this book to be a good, concise reference on infants and toddler language skills. I haven't read the whole book, but I read the introductory sections, and I find myself referring back to the book occasionally to check in on where my kids are, and how I can help. It also has sections on language influences (e.g. birth order), delays, sign language and pre-literacy skills. I think it stays at a good level - concise, but usually includes what I would want to know....less
