Summary of The New Father : A Dad's Guide to the Toddler Years
An essential handbook on all aspects of fatherhood during the second and third years by the author of the best-selling "The Expectant Father: Facts, Tips, and Advice for Dads-to-Be" and "The New Father: A Dad's Guide to the First Year." Incorporating the author's and other father's personal experiences, as well as the advice of top researchers in the parenting field, "A Dad's Guide to the Toddler Years" offers invaluable information and practical tips on such issues as: charting your toddler's physical, intellectual, verbal and social developmentUnderstanding your own emotional and psychological developmentPlaying games, reading and, yes, cooking with your toddlerChoosing the right preschoolImproving communication with your partnerFamily planningTeaching your toddler about moneyTuning up your financesIllustrated with cartoons that will make even the most harried father chuckle, "A Dad's Guide to the Toddler Years" is an indispensable sourcebook for every dad. Moms are sure to find it a valuable reference as well.
Fathers have long played second banana to mothers in parenting books, but Armin A. Brott, author of The Expectant Father: Facts, Tips, and Advice for Dads-to-Be and The New Father: A Dad's Guide to the First Year is trying to change all that. In The New Father: A Dad's Guide to the Toddler Years, the third book in his New Father series, Brott takes on the second and third years of life from Dad's perspective--what he's experiencing, and what he should know. In answer to the question, "Why bother to stay involved?" Brott replies, "Three simple reasons: it's good for your kids, it's good for you, and it's good for your relationship with your partner." Brott covers the whole gamut of fatherhood issues, from developmental stages (discussed in three-month blocks) to discipline, dating, even divorce. Rather than focusing solely on kids, Brott discusses the larger experience of being a father, in a well-crafted, sensible manner. The New Father: A Dad's Guide to the Toddler Years gives contemporary fathers their own comprehensive reference to the challenging and delightful toddler years. --Ericka Lutz
