I'm a nurse practitioner student, getting ready to start my pediatric practicum in May, and I got this book for my Peds didactic class. I think that it's a great resource for beginning NPs. It breaks visits down into a specific complaint (you can look up a specific complaint) or by visit (3 month, 6 month, well-child, etc.). It gives great information regarding differentials, etc. The only thing I wish it gave was specific treatment plans for the disorders. It doesn't give medication dosages.

Great book with very well organinzed content, but there are a few illnesses not included in various body systems. Overall a great reference for NP students.

This is a great reference for PNPs and PNP students. The most common entities seen in pediatric primary care are here, with signs and symptoms, diagnostic tools, and treatments, all in outline format. I used this book a lot as a PNP student and plan on using it when starting in practice. Highly recommended!
