Parents, if you cringe at the thought of your child getting a needle, then this book is a must have for your home medical library. Dr. Paul A. Offit (Chief of Infectious Disease at Children's Hospital in Philadelphia), and Dr. Louis Bell's (Infectious and Emergency medicine at Children's Hospital in Philadelphia) new book, WHAT EVERY PARENT SHOULD KNOW ABOUT VACCINES, is truly a parent's lifeline in a sea of questions and worries about the how's and why's of today's essential vaccinations for home, as well as abroad.
As a pediatric nurse, who invariably gets to "do the honors" of bringing tears to a formerly cooing sweet lil baby face...this book at least helps takes the sting out of inflicting the boo-boo's in question to the wee small babe, as well as her worried parent's hearts.
Bravo! Drs. Offit and Bell, and thank you for this informative little book!
Parents, buy a copy for Granny and Gramps too!
