Pediatric Nursing [With CDROM]

This book has a great flow and organization of material. Wong's textbook jumps around in its' subject matter. Straight A's had some tables that put everything in context. This is not a substitute for study of lectures but, is a great help by giving the condensed version.

This book was tremendously helpful for my Ped's exam. It brought all the most important information together about everything from ages & stages, through diseases and disorders. A must have for all nursing students!

I ran into this Straight A's book after finishing my pediatrics class. I wish I had discovered it sooner! It provides material in outline form, getting rid of the excess verbosity. It also puts important concepts in the margin of the book, so you can quickly get the essential ideas. In addition, everything was in synch with my lecture notes. So not only is it a good summary, but it also summarizes the right things. I compared this book with the similar Lippincott Review Series book, and this was the better of the two.

I have to agree with the last review.....This book is excellant.The Nclex Type questions that are on the CD are very useful/beneficial. This book/CD helped me pass my pediatric exams....I would also recommend the maternal book as well.

This is a great book to have during your pediatric rotation...It really breaks down the hard material and makes it so much easier to understand. It helped me get through nursing level II. The CD has Nclex type questions which are also very helpful.
