“Tracy Hogg has given parents a great gift—the ability to develop early insight into their child’s temperament.” When Tracy Hogg’s guide was first released, it quickly became a bestseller, empowering parents to communicate with their newborns within weeks of birth. Hogg provided a transformative understanding of baby cues, enabling parents to discern whether their child was hungry, tired, distressed, or simply needed comfort. She debunked the myth that sleepless nights are a necessity in the first year, emphasizing that a content baby can sleep through the night. Drawing from over twenty years of experience, Hogg presents accessible programs that include: • E.A.S.Y.—a method for establishing a routine of eating, playing, and sleeping that enhances family life. • S.L.O.W.—a guide to interpreting your baby’s signals to avoid miscommunication. • Identification of baby types—Angel, Textbook, Touchy, Spirited, or Grumpy—and tailored interaction strategies. • Tracy’s Three Day Magic—techniques to eliminate bad habits in just three days. Hogg’s core message encourages treating babies as you wish to be treated, offering a reassuring and practical approach that promises not only a healthier, happier baby but also a more relaxed household.

A Woodleigh Common i ragazzi stanno festeggiando Halloween quando viene fatta una scoperta agghiacciante: la tredicenne Joyce è stata assassinata. La giallista Ariadne Oliver, presente al party, si precipita dall'amico Poirot e lo convince a interessarsi del caso: Joyce, infatti, poco prima della morte, si era vantata di aver assistito a un omicidio, ma nessuno le aveva creduto. Possibile che invece la ragazza, conosciuta per essere un gran bugiarda, avesse detto la verità? E che il colpevole abbia deciso di chiuderle la bocca per sempre?
