I was given an online version of the book for review!
This book is awesome! I really got into it and couldn't stop reading. I wish it would have been around when I was starting out with cloth 3 years ago! There are so many misconceptions about cloth diapering. So many parents picture pins, prefolds and plastic pants when they hear the words cloth diaper! *that is what I wore when I was a baby*
Here is a brief description of the book taken from "Changing Diapers: The Hip Mom's Guide to Modern Cloth diapering" facebook page:
Modern Cloth Diapers Made Easy! Yes, that is right...EASY!
The leading cloth diaper expert Kelly Wels has gotcha covered in this definitive guide to everything you need to know about cloth diapering.
The cloth diaper choice is yours to make. If you're going to be a cloth diapering mom (or dad), you need to know the facts. In
"Changing Diapers: A Hip Mom's Guide to Modern Cloth Diapering", you will have the most comprehensive, easy-to-read, how-to book on the subject of modern cloth diapering.
Why listen to Kelly?
Kelly has been an insider in the cloth diapering industry for nearly a decade. She has seen, touched, and tested just about every brand of cloth diaper imaginable. She has documented her experience for several years on the blog http://www.TheClothDiaperWhisperer.com/ and her personal blog http://www.KellyWels.com/
She was the founder of a large cloth diapering store, DiaperShops.com, that she later sold to spend more time on her passion as an advocate of cloth diapers.
This book is very well laid out. It is super simple to navigate to find useful answers to cloth diapering questions. There is an index at the back of the book that you can use to look up topics. For instance let's say you are using cloth diapers full-time, heading back to work, and faced with putting your littles into daycare! Simply go to the index (p. 219) and look up the word 'daycare' and you will find that daycare is covered from page 105-117!
I was surprised when reading this book at how much useful information there was, right at my fingertips. I have been cloth diapering for 3 years now and until I read this book I never knew the difference between a flat and a prefold. Well, Kelly describes flats on p. 60-61 and prefolds on p. 62-63. I never really cared about flats or prefolds, (as you all know I am a 100% pocket diaper-loving Momma and fitteds and wool at night.... until I received a set of prefolds and a cover for review for the blog! So even 'seasoned' cloth diapering parents can learn a thing or two from this read!
Have you had the opportunity to read this book? You should! I would say it is a 'must have' for every parent/grandparent/daycare provider/aunt/niece you name it to have! It will transform the way you currently view cloth diapers! You will be refreshed and (as a current cloth diapering parent) revived, and confident after reading this book.
