Editorial Reviews

From Booklist
This title is among the first three installments of a new series that will surely become a favorite with both new and experienced parents, come in a handy five-by-seven-inch size, perfect to keep on hand in the nursery or in a nightstand. Brazelton is our modern-day Dr. Spock, and his tips for helping parents deal with everyday concerns and special circumstances have become mainstream in current parenting methodology. In tackling sleep, Brazelton delivers his tried-and-true techniques in a unique but understandable way, making this easy-to-read series one of the more approachable, if slightly oversimplified, ones published today.

Product Description
Sleep: The Brazelton Way covers everything a parent needs to know about sleep, including the first great "touchpoint" of helping the baby sleep through the night, deciding whether to start with, and weaning a child from, a "family bed," sleepwalking, nightmares, and, above all, how to help children learn how to get themselves to sleep.

Sleepless nights, wailing babies, defiant toddlers--these are universal issues for new parents. Now beloved pediatrician T. Berry Brazelton and his esteemed colleague the child psychiatrist Joshua Sparrow come to the rescue with these highly effective and affordable guides. Full of empathy, warmth, and wisdom, each book in the Brazelton Way series leads parents step-by-step through these trying struggles. Courtesy of Dr. Brazelton's unparalleled understanding and experience, parents will emerge from the turmoil relieved, empowered, and full of new pleasure in the strength and progress of their individual child.

1.0 out of 5 stars Nothing new, August 20, 2003

By	Elizabeth C G (Downingtown, PA United States) - See all my reviews

I was hoping this book would help us all get a better nights sleep, but it's the same old "cry it out" method we've all heard about. Not our style.

5.0 out of 5 stars All I needed to know, December 1, 2004

By	Victoria Beecher (Bloomington, Indiana) - See all my reviews

This is a great little book - short, easy to use, not overwhelming. Yet I've found all the answers to my questions in it, simply and clearly explained. I especially like the section with all the suggestions on how to handle problems. I'm done with struggling over bedtime with my 3 year old. This book has shown me what to do and given me the confidence to do it.

2.0 out of 5 stars Could work I suppose, February 24, 2006

By	Isha Ray - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book is easy to read & sympathetic but it didn't work for me. Staying with my baby while he was supposed to self-soothe (as recommended) did not help him or reassure him in any way. He cried continually, stopping for no more than 2 mins at a time. It worked better for me to leave him, returning every 10 - 15 mins for very brief periods of reassurance. He still cried but less & less each day. I think there are babies for whom the stay-with-them style could work, but not all, and alas, not mine.

I had great hope -- sleep !!!!!!

We purchased this book to try and help us help our 1+ year old daughter to have better sleep habits. This book was absolutely no help.

2.0 out of 5 stars Waste of money
I found this book to be just a rehash of what I've read elsewhere. If you are looking for answers, try Health Sleep Habits, Happy Child, this book actually helped me with my baby.
