Editorial Reviews
From Library Journal
Child safety used to be a topic given a chapter or two in a general childcare manual. No more. Popular author Lansky ( The Best of Vicki Lansky's Practical Parenting , Book Peddlers, 1987; etc.) fills her new book with safety tips, indoors and out. She covers the usual (toys, household chemicals, Halloween) and dangers of a mobile society (plane trips, swimming pools, bike seats, visiting Grandma). The book is chock full of common sense, and Lansky throws in many tips parents may not have heard of (wet shoelaces before tying so that they'll stay tied, and lay a ladder across a driveway to keep young trikers from going into the street). Far from being overprecautionary, this is a well-thought-out guide to keeping toddlers and young ones safe and healthy. A broader child safety book is Vivian K. Fancher's Safe Kids , reviewed in this issue, p. 77.--Ed.
