How to Teach Your Baby to Read: The Gentle Revolution (Gentle Revolution)

Rating:
Summary: An approach to life, not just education
Review: This is the book that changed my life and the lives of my siblings for the better. Thank goodness our parents were not put off by naysayers! Glenn Doman has a vision comparable to that of Shinichi Suzuki: that all children, regardless of background, can become beautiful people through a love of learning. What a shame that this natural love can be destroyed if not nurtured! Please, do your child(ren) a favor and read this book. Even if you never do a "program," you will never look at children in the same way again -- and our world will become a better place because of it.

Review: Well, aren't all little babies little geniuses? I know my son is! I actually kept quiet the fact that I was using flash cards on my 3 month old son from everyone but my wife. I believe along with the Domans that these precious little creations can do so much more than we smart adults give them credit or encouragement for. Now in Jan. 2001, when we have to go to the library and get my almost 3 year old son 12-15 books to go through in less than a week...the "reading monster" that I've created! :-) I actually had a little difficulty following along with all of the concepts in the book and had to re-read it about 3 times before I felt prepared to start with it. And, as other reviewers have said, it is alot of work. Many will drop it, but those that don't will certainly have appreciative children to thank them later! Best of luck!
