Definitely an "opinionated" book (the author had nine children and was married seven(!) times), but also an honest one. 700+ pages, of which I remember only one quote: "Just being there is enough." That quote has helped me many times when parenting has caused mental doubt.
Maria Montessori's books are also heartly recommended.
