5.0 out of 5 stars warm, useful info. helps parents ask important questions., June 13, 1997
By A Customer
This review is from: Everyday Pediatrics for Parents (Paperback)
Dr. Grossman writes clearly and with humor about children's health. His approach is designed to help parents think through medical issues and the challenges of parenting, using professional advice as an aid but not a substitute for trusting their own common sense. I recommend this book as a reference guide for both new and experienced parents.

This review is from: Everyday Pediatrics for Parents (Paperback)
Dr. Grossman writes an easy-to-read, down-to-earth guide to raising kids that is informative without being preachy. I have referred to it countless times and found his advice to be right on target. When I was growing up, Dr. Grossman was our family pediatrician. He consistently put himself out to ensure the best possible care for my siblings and me. I have a great deal of admiration and respect for his knowledge of children and families. I HIGHLY recommend this book for all parents.

This review is from: Everyday Pediatrics for Parents (Paperback)
Our daughter has used this book a lot in the first couple of years of our granddaughter's life. It's rare that she can't find answers to a her questions. In fact, she and her husband will often say to each other, 'Let's see what Elmer says.'

As a physician myself, I highly recommend this commonsense book on the medical and developmental questions new parents have about their children. Dr. Grossman's writing style is always graceful, often humorous, and simply browsing in the book is a pleasure.
