Newborn babies can be so surprisingly different from parents' expectations, and yet so much more than they ever dreamed. This is a great book and will make a precious gift. Health I wish we had owned this book when our family took several international trips, including one when I was pregnant. This guide, is written by two doctors who traveled and lived abroad with small children, presents very useful information. This reference includes information on natural and environmental hazards, illnesses in infants, illnesses in children, useful addresses, and further information and advice.
Appendices lists medical terms in French, Spanish, German, Indonesian, and Japanese.
