Bests & Worsts Reviews from Amazon

I got this for my 19 months old daughter. She goes to daycare and had been having severe biting issues. She gets an incident almost everyday and at her worst she gets 3 incident a day. She does not bite us at home. She only does it at daycare when someone takes her toy away, she wants something that another child is playing with or another child sits closer to her and she doesn't want it. We dread picking her up because we feel like we're doing the walk of shame when we have to sign her incident report. I got this book because this seems to be the highest rating book that addresses biting and it seems to worked for a lot of people who posted a review. My daughter loves this book and I read it to her every night before bed and in the morning when she wakes up. This is one of her must read nightly book. Unfortunately, this did not work for her at all. She understood it hurt when she bites based on the photos in this book but she still bites even after a month of reading this to her. Eventually, daycare suggested to see a therapist for both occupational and speech therapy and we did. So we meet with the therapist and she said my daughter does not need any therapy at all. So the therapist went to my child's daycare to observe her and gave the teacher pointers on how to deal with my daughters biting issues. What worked for my daughter was diversion, watching her closely and offering her something else before she gets mad. A week after that her incident starts to lessen and now 2 months after we're completely incident free. I know some parts of my review are irrelevant to this book but I just want to share my experience hoping it'll help others too. As a mom of a serial biter, I don't want to relive that experience again. As for this book, this is still my daughter's favorite book and she won't go to bed without reading this. So yeah it's a great book.
