It's Twins!: Parent-to-Parent Advice from Infancy Through Adolescence

Twin Thumbs Up!!
I love this book! The articles, personal experience stories, and Points to Ponder are a wonderful blend of information, emotion, and help to parents seeking guidance and choices for their own parenting styles. No children are alike, and one approach does not fit all. This book understands that parents want to learn about different parenting approaches. The Points to Ponder help parents think ...

Hyperion, 2006

An Interesting Mystery Based Only on Its Own Merits
As long as you don't go into reading BAD TWIN thinking you're going to solve the mysteries of the hit television show Lost, then you should be okay. BAD TWIN, on its own, is an intriguing mystery featuring twin brothers--one a bigwig in the family business, the other a ne're-do-well who has gone missing. Oh, sure, there are a few references in the actual storyline to make you go "hmmm"--the ...

Educational and encouraging
This book was invaluable during my twin pregnancy, explaining clearly how and why this would be different from my singleton pregnancy. The diagrams of increasing head size and decreasing hospital stay length kept me motivated, even when the going got tough near the end. I didn't try to get all the calories Dr. Luke recommends every day, but I did eat the way she described and kept my weight ...

Courtesy of Teens Read Too
Meredith and Mallory are identical twins born on either side of midnight, one at 11:59pm and the other at 12:01am. It's now thirteen years later and the girls are best friends, but they have completely different interests. Also, like many identical twins, they can often read each others minds and feel what the other is feeling. But their twin senses are a lot stronger than most twins. They ...

Your babies will love this book!
When our boy/girl twins were born, a cousin gave us this book for a gift, and it quickly became one of our favorites to read to them, starting when they were just a few months old. Now they're almost 2 1/2 years old and it is one of their favorites as well. The rhyme is concise and sweet, and the pictures are very endearing. It really celebrates the joy of twins despite all the little ...

Everything You Need to Know to Have a Healthy Twin Pregnancy

Dell, 2000

Exactly what I needed!
This book was very beneficial to me. This was my first pregnancy and I bought several books but none of them focused on twins or even had a chapter dedicated to twins. Most, if not all, of my questions were answered reading this book. I also took advantage of the resources provided.

Emotionally Healthy Twins: A New Philosophy for Parenting Two Unique Children

13 reviews
Joan Friedman

Da Capo Press, 2008

Meeting the Challenges of Twins
"Raising Emotionally Healthy Twins" fills the space earlier reserved exclusively for Dr. Spock, except that it defines the understanding necessary to cope with the thrills, worries and trials attached to a 'two fer.' Dr. Friedman has written what I deem to be the ultimate guide to the healthy development of twins - one that speaks from the heart as well as the mind. This is a book which ...

Double Duty : The Parents' Guide to Raising Twins, from Pregnancy Through the School Years

Christina Baglivi Tinglof

McGraw-Hill, 1998

A good quick glide over a large territory.
If you are expecting twins and only can choose or take the time to read one book, this is the one to buy. As we have a pair on the way, (at a rather late time in life for me, I already have three adult children), I am keenly interested in what is in store for my wife and me in the months ahead. Having now read several books about twins, I would say that Baglivi-Tinglof's "Double Duty" is perhaps ...

Twins! 2e: Pregnancy, Birth and the First Year of Life

Connie Agnew, Alan Klein, ...

Collins Living, 2006

Great primer for twin pregnancy
This is a great book for an overview of what to expect when you're expecting twins. We've bought other books and this one has been spot on about symptoms and development. It is posative and upbeat and really covers alot of concerns one may have. I bought the La Leche Leagues guide on twins and it mostly covers breast feeding, we bought another book that was too vague, this one is great and ...

Ready or Not Here We Come!: The Real Experts' Guide to the First Year With Twins

Elizabeth Lyons

Finn-Phyllis Press, Inc., 2007

Easy Read
The best thing I like about this book is that it maintains an enthusiastic energy throughout. It approaches having twins like an adventure rather than an insurmountable task. I am a physician so I really appreciate the common sense practical advice. For instance, the fact that there is a waiting period for getting into the best daycare centers and it is okay to put ear plugs in, if both babies ...

Legends Gift Set: Time of the Twins, War of the Twins, and Test of the Twins (Dragonlance: Legends Trilogy)

Margaret Weis, Tracy Hickman

Wizards of the Coast, 2002

The classic legends trilogy
What can you say about this, the classic fantasy trilogy? In one word: brilliant. It has all the elements one would want: friendship, adventure, love, magic, excitiment, a laugh and a tear. But what strikes me most about this series (especially if you read the chronicles and everything afterwards) is the fact that right and wrong are not so black and white as they so often are portraited. The ...

The Bone Doll's Twin
This is a complex fantasy world that engulfs you in the realm the author has created. It did take me a little bit to get into it, but that lasted only about a chapter. The detail, the dark atmosphere created by this book is stunning. What intrigued me into reading this series was that the country was supposed to be ruled by a Queen. And while this Queen of the line of Queens ruled, the kingdom ...

Fawcett, 1997

Top of the line Follett
I was sad to see the negative reviews aimed at this book because of the right-wing politics of the bad guys. The actual aims and accomplishments of the trio go far beyond currently accepted politics. For instance, the bad guys protect and encourage a person given to multiple rapes and assaults, and the presidential candidate supports forced sterilization of welfare recipients. If you can deal ...

Raising Twins: What Parents Want to Know (And What Twins Want to Tell Them)

Collins Living, 2000

More than just parenting advice...
With 4 year old twins that keep me on the run, I've read quite a few books looking for explanations and answers to uniquely twin issues. This is the first book I've found that actually discusses parenting issues unique to twins. Other books have been full of the same advice you'd get in any parenting book even though they market themselves as "twins" books. Don't buy this book looking for all ...

Dodo Press, 2007

Great chapter book with good, clean fun!
The classic tales of the Bobbsey twins follow the daily life adventures of a family that has two sets of twins, one older and one younger. My 5 year old twins love these books, and we read a chapter or more to them each night. The end of each chapter has a good cliff-hanger to pique interest in the next chapter. Also, the stories are exciting and positive in nature. We started reading these ...

La Leche League International, 2007

Wonderful resource
Although I already have two children, this book has already been helpful in preparing for the arrival of our twins. People keep telling me how difficult or even impossible it is to nurse multiples and this is giving me the confidence to stick to it.
