Why read it?

1 author picked Breastfeeding the Brave as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

I’m not from a medical background, so I have to work harder to understand how to support babies and children with complex health needs. This book is great at taking me into that world and explaining why breastfeeding matters and why these families need my help. It also has quiz questions to check understanding, and I love the paintings by artist Leanne Pearce.
