Don't get me wrong, I love what these nannies do, the show is excellent, informative and funny. And the book is alright too...the thing is that is has the exact same content as the DVD's of Nanny 911, it even mentions the exact same families and their problems and suggestions. So if you already own the DVD then don't bother purchasing the book. If you don't have anything then purchase the DVD instead which is better than the book.
