3.0 out of 5 stars well presented, but with a few holes, 10 Oct 2003

By	Guppy (Wilts, United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Haynes Baby Manual: Conception to Two Years (Hardcover)

This is a great book aimed at blokes, with information provided in a factural to the point manner without lots of waffle. My only complaint, is that there are a few areas that seem to get missed. An example being it talks about conception and birth, but hardly means the 9 months of pregnancy.

The best bit I love is the facts and figures to hand easily, but then maybe that's because i'm an engineer.

5.0 out of 5 stars Fantastic stuff, 25 Aug 2003

By	David Wrigley - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Haynes Baby Manual: Conception to Two Years (Hardcover)

This book was an inspiration.

For those fathers who want to learn a little more and did not know where to look then this is the answer.

It is well written and is also very funny! The author has managed a great mix of useful facts and humour to make it very readable.

I would heartily recommend it to my friends and would urge anyone reading this to place an order today for a great read!

Well done.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 20 Feb 2004

By	Mr Duncan Pine (Hampshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews

This review is from: The Haynes Baby Manual: Conception to Two Years (Hardcover)

Fantastic book - aimed to get dad's interest. The page on nappies (complete with colour photos) especially useful - saved a complete shock later.....

Could do with a section for 'other options' i.e. Twins
