Outdated

This book is outdated, so not very helpful. Moreover, the suggestions are pretty obvious - I was hoping for a book that gave more specific ideas on what to buy and where (in other words, as an apartment-dwelling mom, what products make sense given the space constraints and where can these be bought today in 2007), where to go (for example, infant-friendly gyms), etc. Although there were some suggestions, the suggestions were very outdated.

Great Resource with Very Witty Writing Style

This is a great book for parents of toddlers. I found the writing funny, the locations mentioned of interest and great tidbits to make your shopping, eating or recreational experience better.

Fun Book!!

Adding my two disappointed cents

Sure, raising kids in New York IS easy when you have the bucks these authors must have to shop at the stores they mention. This extremely yuppy guide smacks of elitism and left me feeling like an embittered "have-not" Additionally, there's not nearly enough information about the borroughs, not all of us are fortunate enough to live on the upper east side...
