Ja plānojat un vēlaties izaudzināt nākamo ģēniju vai vismaz olimpisko čempionu, tad šī grāmata ir jums. Taču, kā raksta grāmatas autori, ja kaut viena no aprakstītajām metodēm liekas apšaubāma, tad šī grāmata jāliek nost.
Grāmatas autori apraksta metodes, kā jau no piedzimšanas brīža ir iespējams attīstīt ne tikai mazuļa fizisko ķermeni, bet arī smadzenes.
Vērtīga atziņa. Bērna panākumi ir tieši atkarīgi no tā, cik daudz laika un enerģijas bērnā ir gstavi ieguldīt vecāki.

Wonderful book.. Must read for all new parents or 'To Be' parents.. Best of the Glenn Doman that I have read (4 books). There are clear cut steps laid out to follow.. Traditional parents may get scared seeing the activities for tiny infants.. Trust me, it works if done with proper care and 2 adults supervision. My daughter is almost 3 and wish I read it before.. Thankfully, without knowing these, we did many things right which helped our daughter to roll over at 2 months with full head control, sit up on her own and crawl on fours by 5 months, walk unassisted at 9m and I would owe it to the tummy time we gave from she was 2 weeks old and muscle strengthening fun activities.. Brachiating is one thing we missed.. Looking forward to try runnin, swimming, swinging, etc in the next 3 yrs ( 3-6 )..

My favorite of Glenn Doman. So straight forward, wise and useful! My baby started crawling when he was five months of age (which according to the book is slow) and he is SO skillful and smart. Really worth it.
