Writing with compassion, acute psychological insight, and a touch of her trademark humor, Viorst invites us to contemplate the limits and possibilities of our control.

Worth pvery penny!!
Format: Paperback
I love this book so much because it has rationales!!!, which are very important in knowing why you got a question wrong or right. There are practice questions that helped me a lot as well. I passed my peds exam because of this book, so if you are a NEW nursing student or one about to take a peds class make sure you get this book and practice after every lecture.
