Description

Your Twelve- to Twenty-Four-Month-Old is full of surprises. This child grows at an incredible rate, and learns to walk, learns to touch, learns to love, and learns how to say “No!” for the first time. All of this can be quite a handful for the new parent.

 In this first book in the series from the renowned Gesell Institute, which includes Your One-Year-Old through Your Ten- to Fourteen-Year-Old , authors examine important questions that concern the twelve- to the twenty-four-month-old child.

 They examine different stages of development between infancy and toddlerhood: what new things the child can do; how a child acts with parents and other people; what a child thinks and feels.
