## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Truly a must  read for the knowledge hungry parent
*by G***B on 13 May 2011*

This book is a handy manual that takes you from essential advice during babyhood right up to school age children. The great majority of the book is geared towards toddlerhood, but parents with babies will also find they can read a few chapters and find some useful advice for the future, such as child-care which usually needs to be planned well in advance.All the advice in the book is taken from the latest scientific evidence on the subject. In fact, similar to a real scientific paper, the book backs up most of its claims on right and wrong, with specific papers, which you can look up in the references section at the back of the book.The book is easy and fast to read. You can pick and choose the chapters, and even the pages, which are relevant to you, as each point in the book is pretty much self-sufficient.In summary of most of the chapters, the book can be split into two main sections. One talks about how to best deal with crying/tantrums, and the other, how to love/play with your child. The other miscellaneous topics talk about sleep and looking after yourself.The overall philosophy of the book can be easily summarised in the following way: Always respond with love and kindness to your child, as it is crucial for their brain development. Parenting which is unresponsive or doesn't take the child's feelings seriously, can result in problems in later life, such as an inability to deal with stress or drug and alcohol abuse.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ An insight into the brain of your baby and toddler
*by A***D on 29 May 2013*

Another book that should be given out to all parents by the NHS or studied in schools. This book helps parents understand how their child is developing emotionally and does it all from a strong research base. The book gives researched explanations to each side of various parenting dilemmas giving the long term and short term effects, enabling parents to make informed decisions about their children also giving powerful examples of how techniques, which are promoted in other books, involving leaving a baby to cry can have a detrimental effect of babies brain development and affect them emotionally into adulthood. Sunderland also takes the same approach to play and rough and tumble, not just telling parents what to do in a prescriptive way but explaining why these things will be good for their child and their relationship.The book also explains why children do things we find confusing explaining what underlies tantrums and why children can struggle with extreme happiness. it also gives clear explanations as to why young children can't share and don't have empathy and gives suggestions to deal with this that don't involve shaming the child and focus on supporting the child with difficult emotions and to help them understand them. the only part of this book I disagreed with was the suggestion of using sticker charts to get children to stay in their own beds. This would be a book that I would recommend to other parents due to the strong research base and understandable explanations of complex topics.

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Read!
*by J***T on 11 June 2024*

Great if you’re a keen parent who’s interested in supporting your child’s needs and making them grow into a happy child who loves themselves.All science based and easy to understand
