What textbook do you use for Pediatric Nursing?

Published

I HATE our peds nursing textbook. i'm thinking of buying another one. what do you guys use at your school?

We use Maternal-Child Nursing by McKinney, et al.

I really like our med-surg book (Lewis). I wish McKinney was more like Lewis.

We used McKinney as well and I hated it. I supplemented with the Lewis NCLEX review book.

I use the same book as the first person that responded, I don't like it at all. If you want something to supplement and get more condensed information from I would recommend Reviews and Rationales for Pediatric Nursing by Ann Hogan. She makes a book for every specialty and they are wonderful! Good luck!

It's pretty cheap too in comparison to text books, check it out on the Amazon link I gave you.
