Read it a week or two before the test

If you have to take a test in the clinical years of medical school you should read case files for every subject. This is a great way to move from text book to cases after reading a review book and before doing practice questions.

The best thing since sliced bread.

I wish I had found this book earlier in third year. Like others said, it's easy to read and since it's broken up into 60 chapters (which are each about ~10 minute chunks) it's great when you have little bits of free time throughout the day. Occasionally you'll read something that you'll want to look up elsewhere, but you can definitely use this as your primary textbook. I read this book ALONE, no blueprints, no A&L, no pre-test and my shelf score jumped into the 90's compared to the 50's before. Buy this book, it's absolutely money.

So thankful for this series

This series is great and the peds is an excellent sampling of some common ped's cases with helpful diagrams and pictures in some cases. The style is easily adapted to wards and can be a quick read. This series is not to be used solely on a clinical rotation. Rather it should be used in addition to other supplementary material.

Easy to Read

I used this book as the sole source for my shelf study, and got a 77 on the shelf exam - not great, but definitely passing. It's a fairly absorbing book, can be read in a few sittings without a big problem. Obviously someone truly interested in pediatrics would buy a more complete textbook, but this is nice, with vignettes, bold print for the big points, and questions to test your understanding at the end of each chapter.

Good for clinic

This book explains diseases very clearly and is easy to read. It's good to read during your Pediatric rotation to give you a basic understanding of the most common diseases. However, the Shelf tests are notoriously hard, so don't make Case Files your sole study tool.
