And Then There Was Me

Rating:
Summary: Great Book for Singles!!
Review: As a single parent, I wanted to have a baby book for my son, but I didn't want it to have huge gaps when it came to questions about his father. With "And Then There Was Me" I can add or delete whatever information I want. I am able to keep an ongoing chronical of important events in his life up through age 18! I love this book and I think it is the perfect solution for alternative families.

Summary: Very Disappointed
Review: As a single parent, I was quite excited to order this baby book....but I was horribly disappointed when I received it. Since it is hardbound, it's difficult to remove the pages that are not relevant to me. In addition, the paper was poor quality and the printing looked as if it was produced on a home ink-jet printer. The screen printing on the cover looked as if it was also done at home.

I found one that was much higher quality, offered as much flexibility for 1/2 the price. The $40 price tag on this is just ridiculous.

While I do think there need to be more baby memory books for alternative families, they do need to be high quality and offer the flexibility to remove irrelevant pages. My situation didn't speak to any of those covered in the book.

Also, let's be realistic....do you really think you're going to fill this out until your child is in 12th grade?

Summary: great baby book
Review: It is a great baby book for non traditional parents. It covered everything I wanted in a baby book and more. I love the fact that you can add more pages. It covers the child until the age of 18. :)
