Fantastic resource for people with limited life experience or reading skills

This book is NOT intended for college-educated mothers-to-be - there are PLENTY of good books (including my favorite - by these same authors - for that demographic). Who this book IS for is teen parents and anyone with more limited English reading skills. What makes this book really unique is not only that it is written simply, but that it is written simply while maintaining something of the pro-mother, pro-baby bias of their original, more extensive work. Midwives are mentioned, for example. And Doulas. And some of the problems with too many interventions at a normal birth. The information is clearly laid out, and addresses the main issues relating especially to birth. I've given copies to young people who found any of the "regular" birth books overwhelming in scope and depth. It was very well received. If, however, you have the interest and the ability to read English well, get their other, much longer book "Pregnancy, Childbirth, and the Newborn: The Complete Guide."
