Understanding Your One-Year-Old

by Sarah Gustavus-Jones

How does the world look to a one-year-old? When your child doesn't have words to explain things to you, how can you begin to understand how she feels? How do you support and understand your very young child as his independence increases and he starts to become a toddler, beginning to learn to dress himself, share toys and play with other children? Acknowledging the crucial role of relationships and parenting, Sarah Gustavus Jones offers guidance and reassurance in this sensitive exploration of the issues central to your child's developing physical and emotional needs.

Readable, encouraging and helpful. I recommend this for any parent of a one year old.

A really dense read...the page formatting made it tough to pay attention to, with lots of tiny text and small margins. The language felt dry and academic, but there was good info.

Livro denso! Tradução para o português bastante limitado

I had never thought of having the ability to "contain" the baby's emotions, but that is a helpful concept for me to think about. This book is short but very wise, accurate and informative. I would like to read it again. There is a lot packed in and I don't feel I was able to decode it all the first time.
