Summary: Who edited this book?
Review: After reading the three reviews on this book, I purchased a copy. I noticed that in chapter 1, "Understanding the Stages of Development" there are some BIG errors with the layout. Under the heading "The Third Year" on page 14, it discusses 2 year old behavior. Under the heading "The Fourth Year" on page 16, it discusses the behavior of a 3 year old. This mismatched problem continues throughout the rest of the chapter and completely left out the behavior of 7 year olds, for which that heading, "The Sixth and Seventh Years" covers 5 and 6 year old behavior. I kept wondering if anyone who wrote the previous reviews actually read this book. If you can ignore the multiple errors and just read through the book, I think it's worth three stars.

Summary: I guess I'm at that stage in life
Review: I bought this book because my older brother and his wife had a baby a few years back, and I wanted to know how to treat him in a way that would benefit him. I would always just spoil him, and I noticed that he would throw temper tantrums when he couldn't get what he wanted. Of course, when other people were around, the parents usually gave in to the wants of the toddler. This book educated me in how to deal with my nephew during temper tantrums (and other times when he didn't listen to his parents), and I am very excited when I see my nephew and understand how to take care of him in a way that benefits him the best.

Summary: To Anonymous - where were you in math class?
Review: I have not read this book, I was just looking through reviews. Anonymous seems not to understand the grammatical and mathematical terms first, second, third, etc. If s/he thinks that the fifth year means we are talking about a five-year-old, than what does s/he think about the first year? A one-year-old? Then how do you refer to a 0-12-month-old baby? The 0th year? Anonymous: the first year means from birth to 12 months, the second year means from 12-24 months (one-year-old), the third year means 24-36 months (two-year-old) and so on. Therefore the book phrased the age categories absolutely correctly. Thought you should know... Now I am interested in reading the book!

Summary: An Awesome Read!
Review: This is a book that is getting a lot of attention for the older child version, but do people know about the one for ages 6 and under? Much like the other version, this book offers guidelines for young children. I have had much success and am a happier mother because of it! It is a must read for mothers of preschoolers! Don't miss out and miss the boat! Buy this book today.
