La divertida visión de una madre americana sobre cómo educar mejor a tus hijos y sobre las diferencias de educación entre un lado y otro del AtlánticoCuando Pamela Druckerman, una periodista estadounidense que acaba de mudarse a vivir a Paris, tiene un bebe, no aspira a convertirse en una mama a la francesa. Nunca se habia imaginado que el modo en que los franceses crian a sus hijos fuese especialmente digno de admiracion. No es algo concreto, como la moda o los quesos franceses; nadie viaja a Francia para empaparse de las ideas de sus habitantes con respecto a la autoridad de los padres o el manejo de la culpa. Sin embargo, la autora observa que los niños franceses se comportan educadamente en los restaurantes y comen de todo, duermen toda la noche desde los cuatro meses, no gritan ni piden cosas constantemente y saben jugar solos mientras sus padres los observan a distancia o charlan con sus amistades... ¿Como es posible? ¿Cual es el secreto?Decidida a desentrañar el misterio y con una libreta escondida en la bolsa de los pañales, la periodista emprende una investigacion sobre las claves de una sociedad integrada por pequeños gastronomos dormilones y progenitores razonablemente relajados. Con una narracion literaria a medio camino entre la carcajada y la desesperacion, nos brinda toda una investigacion sobre la educacion del bebe, la imposicion de reglas y sobre como inculcar la virtud de la paciencia. UN LIBRO IMPRESCINDIBLE PARA CUALQUIERA QUE VAYA A TENER UN BEBE Y PARA TODOS ESOS PADRES ANGUSTIADOS Y ESAS MADRES OJEROSAS A LAS QUE LES ENCANTARIA CONVERTIRSE EN UNA MAMA CRUASAN
