Books
	Caring for Your School Age Child: Ages 5-12 Most parents believe that their youngster's childhood passes much too quickly. Only yesterday, it seemed, you sang lullabies over your child's crib, or watched her crawl for the first time or take her first steps.
	American Academy of Pediatrics Guide to Your Child's Nutrition: Making Peace at the Table and Building Healthy Eating Habits for Life One of our favorite cartoons is 'Baby Blues,' by Rick Kirkman and Jerry Scott. A young couple have two children, a preschooler and an infant. In one strip, the preschooler climbs up on a stool next to her mother and asks, 'What are you cooking?'
	American Academy of Pediatrics Guide to Your Child's Sleep : Birth Through Adolescence Sooner or later, almost every parent must deal with a child's sleeptime problems. In early infancy, the first task is to help your baby learn to sleep longer at night and stay awake for increasingly longer periods during the daytime.
	The American Academy of Pediatrics New Mother's Guide to Breastfeeding As you prepare for motherhood, you will want answers to all of your questions about breastfeeding. You will want to consider how it is possible to combine breastfeeding with work outside the home, how you can fully involve your partner in parenting
	Caring For Your Teenager What if parenting a teenager were a job like any other, advertised in the want ads? Imagine picking up the classifieds and finding this: We have an exciting, demanding position open in our department of growth and development.
	Caring for Your Baby and Youn: Birth to Age 5 Pregnancy is a time of anticipation, excitement, preparation, and, for many new parents, uncertainty. You dream of a baby who will be strong, healthy, and bright--and you make plans to provide her with everything she needs to grow and thrive.
	Your Baby's First Year (Second Edition) When your baby first arrives, you may feel a bit overwhelmed by the job of caring for her. Even such routine tasks as diapering and dressing her can fill you with anxiety-especially if you've never spent much time around babies before.
