Summary: A must have if you are expecting twins!
Comment: Twins 101 is both informative and practical. Dr. Le-Bucklin's approach to understanding twins from conception, through delivery and into infancy is simple an easy to understand. I wish this book was around when I was pregnant with my twins. By the time I discovered Twins 101, my twins were 2, and even then, I still learned new and useful information. Twins 101 is everything an expecting parent of twins needs to know. Dr. Le-Bucklin is a mom of twins, as well as a pediatrician. It comforts me in knowing she has been through it and understands it on a medical level, as well someone who has personally experienced the joys of twins.

Summary: Informative, practical, perfect!
Comment: As far as twin pregnancy and parenting books go, I have owned a few. I am a mom of twins after all. What immediately struck me about Twins 101 was the unique format. This book is not comprised of the usual layout of extensive chapters, yet still presents the pertinent facts in notable detail. Twins 101 offers super easy to read, and even easier to find, tips on the topics we, as parents of twins, are most interested in. Add to that, the practical, compact size and you'll be tempted to keep a copy in your purse or diaper bag for easy reference! -- Kellie Asaro, founder of Twin Pregnancy and Beyond (www.twin-pregnancy-and-beyond.com)

Summary: Veteran Parent
Comment: Excellent book! This is a must-have reference for any parent with multiples (twins, triplets, etc). Dr. Le-Bucklin has provided insight that allows parents to understand the sometimes overwhelming neonatal intensive care unit experience. This book is extremely well written!

Summary: The perfect book for busy moms!!!
Comment: With multiple births on rise, I have several friends and co-workers who have twins or expecting twins. I decided to buy this book as a Christmas present because it's written by a pediatrician who has twins of her own. Now, I think that's some expert insight you can't find anywhere else. All other books out there seem to be written with a marketing spin, lots of eloquent words yet very little substance. Let's face it: Busy Parents Don't Have Time To Read Through Tons of Words Before Getting to a Practical Tip!!! This book is just the opposite. From the moment you start leafing through it, you can't put it down because it's full of subtance and valuable tips you can apply immediately. From early pregnancy through childhood, you can review practical tips based on your current stage and refer to additional tips as you need. It's the ideal book for busy moms who need quick and tangible "on the go" insight. It's like having a personal pediatrician who is an amazing communicator at your own disposal. My friends all raved so much about their book that I had to buy my own copy and they were absolutely correct. I don't recommend anything else if you want the best book on parenting twins!

Summary: Disappointing
Comment: This book was not as helpful to me as others out there on the subject. Just not as substantial.
