If you're concerned or inquisitive about your baby's development, you should have this book! Dr. Sears covers the physical, mental, and emotional develpments of your baby. Hundreds of cute pictures of his own baby. The reason I prefer this book over other infant development books is that the book's style is so "down-to-earth" and conversational, and the pictures help you see what's happening with your baby rather than just reading about it.

One of my favorite books for new parenting! Written by a well-respected pediatrician and father of a large family, this book explains the month-to-month developmental stages of the first year of a child's life. Made me anticipate each of those stages with excitement as my babies grew and we enjoyed them 'together'. I felt very prepared to know what to expect, what was generally 'normal' and it put me at ease to enjoy, rather than fret over, my babies' important first year. Dr. Sears obviously loves babies and conveys that hands-on, engaged approach to his readers and encourages them to love and enjoy their babies, too! A real winner.
