A cool book, with remedies made from stuff you have around your house already, including your own brain, which can be used for most of the "ailments" listed.

As a parent, I like this book because I hate using store-bought medicines and chemicals to treat my children and would much prefer "natural" methods like vinegar for bee stings and rubbing alcohol for cooling a fever.

The only problem I have with this book is that it's big and for some of the ailments it lists many solutions, which can be confusing when you just need one. All-in-all, though, a pretty neat reference, but one that won't replace the real, live family doctor.

Not every little problem your child has requires a trip to the doctor. This is a wonderful book for Dr. Mom and covers quite a lot of children's maladies. I highly recommend it.
