Whenever I run across a book or paper with each chapter beginning with a letter to match some acronym, or in this case, the alphabet, I wonder if the author may have stretched the point from time to time to make the information fit so nicely. But, in this book, I felt okay with the format. Perhaps with parenting there is no end to important subjects to discuss. Here are a few of the ABC titles: Advocate for your children, Backpacks and Books, Clothes and Contracts, Divorced parents, Education is their job, Free time. I think you get the idea.With these layouts I always wonder how the author will handle the less popular letters such as Q, V, W, X, Y, and Z. Muller titles for these are Questions to ask your child's teacher, Volunteer, "What" Questions, X-ray vision, You, and Zone.But, more importantly is what came after the titles. I can only tell you I wish I'd had this book when my children were in school. It is short, easy to read, and full of useful information.
