   This book is exactly what the title implies – BIG BOOK OF PARENTING SOLUTIONS! Dr. Michele Borba not only gives us detailed and proven suggestions (solutions), she talks our language. Her research is outstanding and helps you to be a better parent. From toddlers to teens, she has the answers. Like her other books, she puts her heart into the book, and you can feel the power you are gaining – power in better understanding our kids.

   Whether you are an educator, parent, coach, therapist, daycare provider or psychologist – you must take time to read this book! It is large, but you can easily find your areas of interest – which there are many! From your child’s behavior ( that lovely attitude) to sibling rivalry – I don’t think this book missed a beat. I highly recommend it to anyone working with kids today!

   I bought this book because my mom saw her on tv and told me I HAD to get this book because it had the answer to everything in it! I beg to differ. She only touches on some subjects and part of her 101 answers are just general overviews without actually tackling the issue. I was having potty-training issues with my son…not even in there! Nothing about one of the biggest parenting challenges. At this point trying to convince my child to keep curfew is the least of my worries. Too good to be true. If you want some lady who wrote a book to give you all the answers, forget it. She’s making money on our society’s need to be “perfect parents”. Good for her but the book’s going to collect dust until I have a teenager that talks back.
