about this book

Show Mom How brings the parenting expertise of Parenting and Babytalk magazines to the award-winning Show Me How series—one part how-to guide, one part graphic art showpiece, and one part pure inspiration. In a series of nearly wordless, highly informative step-by-step activities, moms-to-be get the inside scoop on pregnancy and parenting with details on key aspects of new motherhood, including sharing the news of a pregnancy, decorating the nursery, swaddling a newborn, coping with teething, inducing labor naturally, trimming baby's nails, and celebrating a first birthday—plus 159 other simple how-tos that range from sweet to silly. Presented in a bold new visual style that draws on the best of information technology and graphic-novel communication, Show Mom How brings moms the knowledge they need in a stylish, fun format. Packed with useful hands-on tutorials, Show Mom How is also a parent-tested resource that will prove indispensable in any number of situations, from the bedroom to the kitchen to the playground.
