"The dos and don'ts, information on developmental stages, possible
reasons for behavior, and recommendations of what else to do found
in this guide provide the reader with a primer of accepted early
childhood practice. This guide would be especially helpful for
novice child care personnel--a copy in every classroom."
--Barbara A. Nilsen, EdD, Author of Week by Week: Documenting the
Development of Young Children "This book doesn't beat around the
bush. It gets straight to the point and outlines for caregivers and
families the fact that many of the behaviors they think are 'bad'
are natural. It gives great pointers for better understanding
children's actions rather than be upset by them."
--Amy Hood Hooten, EdD, infant-toddler specialist, CCR&R
