It works
After using the suggestions in this book, my 18 month old goes quietly to bed. Before, he would yell and scream until we were a bag of nerves. It is like a miracle!

I liked it.
This is my first go round with a toddler and hubby & I have been at a loss on how to handle meltdowns. This book has helped. I now feel more in control when she has her meltdowns. We have been able to lower the number of meltdowns and I feel we are connecting better.

Informative, yet easy to read!
I heard the author speak on NPR and thought it was worth reading his book, since I am buying a new puppy. Being a first time owner, I really wanted to know what I was getting into. The book is quite comprehensive starting from the very first day and extending far beyond. I have been able to fly through it and it is not boring like you might think a manual might be. Chapters are well organized ...

Great book for training your dog
This book seems to be an excellent book for training your dog -- big or small. The author takes you from trying to understand your dog, to simple things you should need to train your dog, the first basic commands, moving on to harder things. At the end the author also outlines a variety of items to discipline your dog if your dog has problems of barking, chewing etc. Not only is the book ...

Well-Behaved Women Seldom Make History

Laurel Thatcher Ulrich

Knopf, 2007

Good, if incomplete, overview
I've seen thousands of those bumper stickers and t-shirts stating (incorrectly, as it turns out), "Well-behaved women rarely make history." (I interned at NOW years ago, and they were everywhere!) Learning the source of the quote, which Ulrich explains in her preface to this book, was alone worth reading this book. From such humble beginnings it came! Ulrich may have bitten off more than ...

MacMillan Publishing Company, 1995

It may sound crazy, but this book has changed my life!
I am the mother of 3-1/2 year-old twins. Several weeks ago Iwas ready to throw in the towel in the Discipline department. "Mychildren never obey me. They don't listen to anything I say and hardly ever cooperate. Nothing I've tried has worked. I feel like a failure as a parent." My screaming had escalted to new heights, and I had even resorted to spanking my children in frustration and anger. I ...

Mattie Sue Athan

Barron's Educational Series, 2007

A very good beginner book!
My hubbie decided to petsit his uncle's macaw but we had no idea why she acted the way she did. She would screech loudly, try to bite us, & if we tried to get her down from our shoulder she would run to our back. We needed information. This book didn't disappoint! Chapter 2 was a treasure trove of information. It had games you could play with your parrot, also how to get your parrot to stop ...

The Best Book I have found - Absolutely Outstanding!

It has GREAT advice for parents of tweens and teenagers. I have a 1 year old and a 3 year old and I just wanted to make sure I was ...

Phil Maggitti

Barron's Educational Series, 1993

How to work with your cat instead of against it!
You must be friends with your cat in order to train it. Sorry - no miracles here. Phil Maggitti will teach you how to work with your cat, not how to overcome its basic nature and turn it into a dog that meows. That one sentence above perhaps best exemplifies why I love this book so much: Mr. Maggitti understands cats. And so will you, by the time you're done reading this book. Having ...

The Grand Poobah of Dog Books
The behavioral, veterinary, literary, and emotional components of the Canine/Human relationship are in perfect focus and balance in this fine work, which I understand is being considered for adaptation to the musical stage under the title My Fair Doggie.

Bonnie Maslin's Picking Your Battles
I bought this book after reading the reviews and hoped and crossed fingers that this book would help me to get back to how I was before I became a mother or at least help me to be a good mother and not a nagging old witch that I have now become. Well I'm glad I did! I have two boys, one nine and the other twelve...and after reading the book I wished I had the book before I even gave birth to ...

Ain't Misbehavin': The Groundbreaking Program for Happy, Well-Behaved Pets and Their People

John C. Wright, Judy Wright Lashnits

Rodale Books, 2001

Sound advice
Hearing Dr. Wright speak, I bought this book on the spot. Dr. Wright does a great job applying behavior principles to common situations, in language non-behaviorists can understand. You'll take away from his book the idea that you should look at your own unique pet in your own unique circumstances to pinpoint any behavior problems you may be having, letting just exactly what is happening, ...

The Complete Idiot's Guide to a Well-Behaved Child is filled with wise, positive approaches to child rearing that can help you raise the ...
