The Toddler Years: Steps and Stages from 1 to 3

Jane Heath teaches psychology at Ryerson Polytechnical University in
Toronto.

Anecdotes from experienced parents and professional advice from a
variety of experts in the areas of child care and child development are
pleasingly blended in these two guides to dealing with the issues
confronted during the toddler and preschool years. Well organized and
lucidly written, the books cover a broad range of topics—from
separation anxiety and security blankets; to peer socialization; to
temper tantrums and phobias; to eating, sleeping, and elimination
problems—in an amusing and accessible fashion.

Many concrete examples are given, and the structure of the books makes
it easy to locate the particular age/stage/behavior of interest. There
are generous listings of related books and resources.

As sources of practical information and creative suggestions, these
books are highly recommended to parents and others involved in caring
for toddlers and preschool children.
