Great resource for parents,
This review is from: First Aid for Babies & Children Fast (Paperback)
This is a very good resource book for parents. It includes photographs rather than drawings, making it easier to understand the procedures being described. I think this helps parents who may have limited reading skills or for whom English is not their first language. This would be a great book to give as a baby shower gift.

It can happen to any of our precious babies, please buy this book,
By Firstinlastout (South Florida) - See all my reviews
This review is from: First Aid for Babies & Children Fast (Paperback)
Today I tried resuscitating a 5 month old baby. He died later in the pediatric ER. I have a 3 month old, it hit me pretty hard. Parents...please know what to do if your baby aspirates on his own vomit...know how to clear his airway and provide artificial ventilations and chest compressions. Doing this will help tremendousely until we can get there.
Thanks.

This review is from: First Aid for Babies & Children Fast (Paperback)
I am a 4th grade teacher and I keep this book in my classroom for both myself and the kids to read. It's written and illustrated very well and it is easy to understand.
