Summary: Touchpoints: Your Child's Emotional and Behavioral Developme
Comment: This book has been a lifeline for me! I depended on it as a first-time mom 3 years ago with my first child, and now it is just as valuable as I raise my now 8-month-old twins. Whenever my children begin to experience eating, sleeping, or other behavorial difficulties, I go to this book and find out these behaviors are simply a result of their normal development. The advice to these problems is always practical, loving, common-sense, and most often successful. I would not advise anyone to get this book as their only reference book (don't buy it expecting to find treatments for diaper rash!), but it is most definitely a must-have!

Summary: A good book to read about Child Development
Comment: What I liked about this book is that it's easy to read and understand. In part 1 of the book, Brazelton discusses a variety of topics in different stages of age development, from newborn to 3yrs. Some topics he writes about are bonding, teething, discipline, learning, toilet training and more... In part 2 of the book, he discusses the challenges in development a child may face. Some of the topics are allergies, developmental disabilities, divorce, hospitalization and sibling rivalry. In part 3 of the book, the author discusses people who may be involved in your child's life which includes the parents. Others are grandparents, friends, caregivers and your child's dovtor. At the end of the book, there are 14 useful addresses and phone numbers you may contact for more infomation about child development. I rated it 4 stars because I disagreed with a few specifc issues. One being, he mentioned that toddlers don't need snacks between meals until age 4-5yrs. I also disagreed with what he has to say about trying to schedule your baby's feeding at every 4 hours.

Summary: randomly helpful
Comment: Despite Brazelton's medical degree and experience I found this book as mixed and confusing as most of the "baby whisperer" genre of baby books. His observations based on real research and larger bodies of evidence are sometimes helpful but his personal opinions (most of the book) are often infuriating and quite prejudiced (i.e. it's better to have more than one child because a sibling forces a child to share. Good God) I prefer Penelope Leach or Sears for good common sense insights and less moralizing.
