Parent Talk is the parenting equivalent to the Betty Crocker Cookbook for the kitchen. I mean you will take this book off the shelf again and again and again. It is organized to be a very handy ready reference. It has a quite useful table of contents which structures the book around the ages of the child. This is helpful since the issues in rearing a todler are so different from those of our teenagers.

This book helps us understand our children's behavior and, of course, it offers real practical steps to guide our children through their turmoil.

We're doing a parenting series at my church, and Kevin Leman was one of the experts interviewed. He was so funny, that I started looking for his books. I found this book recently, even though it's an older book; and I really enjoyed reading it. It's a compilation of questions and answers that really hits a lot of different topics. It's very easy to read; I read it in just a couple of hours. I kept having to stop and read some parts aloud to my mom and husband. I plan on reading more of Leman's books!
