Reviews of Sandi Kahn Shelton's book Sleeping Through the Night by Sandi Kahn Shelton
Amazon.com
The secret to surviving parenthood? It's laughter, according to author
Sandi Kahn Shelton. In this delightful book, Shelton, who's also the
humor columnist for Working Mother magazine, dishes up hilarious
insights into the inner workings of infants and toddlers that only a mother
of three could provide. From sleep deprivation to sleeping with toasters,
choosing child-care, and waiting for poop, Shelton touches on all the
hottest topics of the first three years of parenthood. Organized by
subject, instead of in chronological order, you'll find witty and wonderful
stories in chapters such as "Why Babies Cry," "The Daddy Dance," "You
Can Leave Home Without Them," "Parenting in Public," and "Life in the
Terrible Twos." Shelton at one moment bombards us with such pure
silliness as "Spaghetti goes on the head; that's why it's made in strands,"
and then, at the next opportunity, turns on the compassion with "you're
most likely going to live through this time in your life. Especially if
you can
laugh. In fact, definitely if you can laugh." With such wit and wisdom,
Shelton will help you see the lighter side of parenthood--and, hopefully,
help you enjoy it even more. --Kelley Smith
