There are a million parenting books out there, but this is the one you really need. Perfect for new mums who have little time on their hands, but need reassurance that it's all going to be okay.
There's a lot of romance about becoming a parent, but at some point the storybook scenarios of serene life with baby are interrupted by the darker side of the motherhood experience: the little 'bundle of joy' cries inconsolably, wakes up four times a night, won't take a bottle -- the fantasy of motherhood quickly collides with reality. Vivian Glyck shows us that in fact it's the difficult parts of parenting that are the most valuable. Written with honesty and humour, this book is guaranteed to become a new mother's best friend.
'The Tao of Poo' presents ten valuable life lessons that arise amid all the challenges of parenting. Based on the author's own experience and drawing on the sentiments of many mothers she's spoken to and corresponded with, each chapter explores a common parenting predicament and a lesson that can be drawn from it, as well as helpful tips and strategies she calls 'sanity savers'.
