Book Reviews of Your Toddler Month By Month

Book Review: Finally! A decent toddler book.
Summary: 5 Stars

I've been searching for a book that falls in the middle of the spectrum between Dr. Sears and What to Expect the Toddler Years and think this is it. I loved "I'm Pregnant" and was thrilled to find a toddler book by the same publisher with the same format. There are lots of pictures and sidebars and the author's style is not at all condescending, though like "I'm Pregnant" this isn't the catchiest title! The book doesn't actually go month by individual month, it actually is organized into sections for 12-18 months, 18-24 months, 2-3 years, and 3-4 years which makes a lot more sense for toddler development stages. We practice what my best friend dubbed "realistic attachment parenting" and this book is very much in line with that. In other words, we do a lot of attachment style and pay attention to our child's personality/needs, but draw the line at things that aren't practical for us, like co-sleeping or constant babywearing. One thing I particularly liked about this book is that there's one indexed entry on breastfeeding, which basically says--it's a highly personal decision how long to do it. Don't look for weaning advice or a celebration of extended breastfeeding here, just a couple of straightforward sentences. The author has good credentials and solid sources. The sections on brain development are easy to read and fascinating! I recommend this book to anyone who wants practical advice on raising and appreciating their toddler.

Summary of Your Toddler Month By Month

In the tradition of DK's best-selling title, I'm Pregnant, which has sold 200k copies worldwide to date, comes another must-have DK book on how to raise a contented and confident little one. This book taps into the growing demand for child-centered advice on parenting, offering professional information and age-appropriate strategies to help parents deal with all the big toddler issues, from bedtime routines to temper tantrums to mealtime. Its reassuring and personal tone arms parents with an understanding of how their child develops socially, emotionally, and physically in the first four years without ever being preachy or patronizing.
