Required reading for parents who want to give their child the best start in life!

Must your charming five-month-old turn into a tiny terror? Are the “terrible twos” and public tantrums inevitable? Burton White, author of the classic The First Three Years of Life, doesn’t think so. Basing his recommendations on thirty-seven years of research and observation, White shows how to bring up an independent, socially secure, and delightful child.

In his groundbreaking and easy-to-follow book, White takes parents through the normal development stages of their child’s first thirty-six months, recommending the best ways to:
—React to a child’s intentional cry
—Cope with stranger anxiety, separation anxiety, and sibling rivalry
—Manage unacceptable behavior without causing emotional harm to a child or damaging the parent/child relationship
—Handle challenging sleep situations, calm a cranky newborn, and deal with the toddler’s fine art of the whine

All parents who want a peaceful, loving relationship with their child instead of a constant emotional tug-of-war will find that Raising a Happy, Unspoiled Child is the one book that must have a place on their shelf.
