As with most of the blueprints series for clinical rotations, the book for Peds is an excellent source to use early on in the rotation to pump knowledge into your brain. Use this text to weave the fabric connecting the entire rotation. Use UpToDate or big, fat peds texts (Nelsons, Rudolphs) to learn specifics about your patients. And finally use a question book (Appleton and Lange, for example) to prepare for the shelf.

This book has everything, I bought the older edition and it has everything you'll need to pass the boards, take care of pediatric patients, do well on a clinical rotation and beyond!!!

This was the first Blueprints i'd used, and i was very impressed. I went through several sections a couple of times over the course of the clerkship and reinforced with pre-test at the end. Covers most topics you need to know without getting verbose. You do need to revisit some topics otherwise you spend so little time reading the subject matter it doesnt stay with you.
