Customer Reviews
A practical and comprehensive guide, easy to read
If you want a detailed guide on how to survive your first year with your twins, this is not the book for you. There are more suitable titles available, which cover feeding twins, sleeping arrangements etc.
The focus is very much on how to bring up your twins as individuals, and as such it is very good. It's written in a clear, easy-to-read style. There are no magical answers, but lots of useful suggestions.
If you don't like books with a very US slant, avoid this one. It's easy to read, unlike some US material, but the section on schooling refers exclusively to the US school system, and the interviews with twin families (which I liked) are all with US families.
Other than that, I am already finding it very useful - infact we have already implemented some of the sugestions for our family (3 year old daughter and 9 month old identical boy twins).
