Watch Me Grow: I'm One: Every Parent's Guide to the Enchanting 12- to 24-Month-Old

Being a year old (12 to 24 months) is an exciting time for babies. Their brains are growing from one quarter of adult size at birth to three-quarters of adult size by two years of age. They are learning to walk, to share (though not much), and they never stop moving. These beguiling young children are just beginning to realize that their thoughts are separate from others, that objects are different from people, and that when mom leaves the room she has not disappeared forever.This remarkable series differs from others because: -- It offers a child's point of view-- It is age-specific-- It incorporates cutting-edge research on brain development, showing conclusively that between 12 and 24 months certain critical windows of neurological development are open in language and emotional growth that will never be so wide open again.O'Brien, Maureen is the author of 'Watch Me Grow: I'm One: Every Parent's Guide to the Enchanting 12- to 24-Month-Old' with ISBN 9780688168780 and ISBN 0688168787.
