Narration made it difficult to finish

Narration was not fluid. I was expecting a more professional read. Topics of use for parents.

Great info, difficult reading

The information in this book is excellent. I struggled with the way it was read, it didn’t flow. However I would still recommend it because of the valuable information it contains

Narration was miserable.

I barely got through the book. It was difficult to listen to and just not what I was expecting.

Not very well suited for an audiobook

Not sure why they added this title to audiobooks. It isn't suited for that purpose. There may be some good information, but It's about as engaging as listening to someone reading a dissertation on the ingredients of oatmeal. It reminds me of textbooks from years ago. I didn't want to be harsh, but it's tough finding interesting, helpful, and relatable books on this subject. I encourage the writers to take another shot at it because there are so many people out there looking for help.
