This week's review TITLE: Bringing Up Bébé AUTHOR: Pamela Druckerman NUMBER OF PAGES: 432 EST. READ TIME: 5 hours 18 minutes PRICE: $27.95 WHAT IT'S ABOUT: Pamela Druckerman moves to Paris for her husband. In time they decide to have a baby, something she never imagined doing in another country, but does it anyway. She soon begins to notice that French children are not like the children she’s seen in America or the UK. There are very little toddler tantrums, babies sleep through the night and eat fish and vegetables at the dinner table with the rest of the family with no complaint. Pamela begins to wonder what kind of magic powers the French possess and decides to investigate the ways in which they parent so she can mimic them in her own motherhood journey. What she finds on her mission to achieve perfect parenting is both fascinating and funny. WHO IT'S FOR: This book is definitely for parents. Ideally parents with small children. WHY YOU SHOULD READ IT: Although I found that some of the parenting methods and tactics described in Bringing Up Bébé didn’t align with my own parenting philosophies I found Pamela’s journey thoroughly entertaining. If anything the book is an ode to the way in which mothers operate with their own individual rhythms and that nobody should judge others for their choices. NOTABLE QUOTES: Yet the French have managed to be involved without becoming obsessive. They assume that even good parents aren't at the constant service of their children, and that there's no need to feel guilty about this. "For me, the evenings are for the parents." one Parisian mother tells me. "My daughter can be with us if she wants, but it's adult time.”
