The book is helpful and consolidates useful information, but it becomes repetitive. The tone is friendly and encouraging, making it accessible for exhausted parents.

She appreciated the comprehensive approach and the friendly tone, which made it easier to read despite the repetitive sections. The book's practical advice and step-by-step process were particularly useful for parents who are sleep-deprived and looking for gentle solutions. However, she noted that the book could benefit from a more concise presentation to avoid redundancy.
