Worried about protecting your baby from the abundant harm of everyday living? Authors David and Kelly Sopp have you covered with Safe Baby Handling Tips, which offers laugh-out-loud guidance on baby care for anyone overwhelmed and befuddled-i.e., everyone-when it comes to caring for their new bundles of joy.

Why make everything up as you go along when this gifty, indispensable guide can show you how to be a little less incompetent as parents?
