520    Practical, reassuring, and beautifully written, A is for 
       Advice provides a brief and compelling reflection on 
       pregnancy, birth, and the early postpartum period for 
       expectant mothers of all kinds--whether you prefer a water
       birth at home or a scheduled C-section in a hospital, 
       whether you believe in painkillers or an all-natural labor,
       breast milk or formula, this book speaks to you and your 
       pregnancy. Written in the approachable and friendly tone 
       of a best-friend blogger but informed by the insight of a 
       Registered Midwife, A is for Advice seeks to comfort and 
       inspire, providing realistic and soothing advice at a time
       when most women desperately seek out information. Through 
       26 lesson/letters of the alphabet (C is for Control; F is 
       for Fear; W is for Water), A is for Advice offers 
       practical and emotional insights into the often 
       overwhelming transition to motherhood. Using a combination
       of humor, story-telling, research distillation, and 
       personal reflection, A is for Advice speaks to concerns 
       common to all women as they approach birth and motherhood.
       Eschewing the "birth wars" for a women-centered, feminist 
       perspective, A is for Advice does not argue for any one 
       type of birth experience, but rather empowers each woman 
       to be her own advocate. If the book could be summed up in 
       one line it would be, simply, "be gentle with yourself." 
       Read it cover-to-cover or in the short bursts available to
       an expecting mom (each letter stands alone), this book 
       offers a compelling call for well-informed, judgment-free,
       and forgiving birthing and mothering. A small gift package
       with a beautiful black-and-white illustration program by 
       Iris Gottlieb, this is the ultimate baby shower gift for 
       your best friend, sister, or daughter.
