Welcome to the 25th Edition of the Bookworms Carnival! The Carnival, started by the lateDewey @ The Hidden Side of a Leaf, is a semi-monthly blog carnival that collects book blog posts centered on a particular theme.

Normally a prolific carnival it seems my chosen topic of parenting has garnered only a few entries .

Callista of SMS Book Reviews submitted a great review of The No Cry Nap Solution by Elizabeth Pantley – I’m putting this on my list of titles to pick up.  My nearly three-year-old is extraordinarily nap-resistant, and my baby takes micro-naps only.

Rebecca of Rebecca Reads offers an insightful review of Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Kohn.  Rebecca clearly outlines Kohn’s premise and the points she agrees and differs on.

My own contribution is not your traditional parenting book, Praying for Your Prodigal Daughter: Hope, Help & Encouragement for Hurting Parents by Janet Thompson deals with the longing of parents for their daughters to come to Christ; providing tools, resources and support for struggling parents.
