Reviews

-The Other 23 Hours is a book that badly needed to be written, and read. Most urgently, it needs to be applied. For the field of child care in America, this book is food for the mind. Is it too much to hope that it may also help to make the American public want to build one?- --David Wineman, The Foreword
