How to talk so kids will listen & listen so kids will talk
by Adele Faber, Elaine Mazlish
Review
A very quick read. Lots of great advice in here that you can immediately pick up and start using as a parent. The book feels like there is a lot of self-congratulatory 'dressing', however a lot of this is in the form of case studies which help to reinforce the material. I feel like I will need to reread this sometime soon to reinforce my understanding. Definitely worth a read.
