Knack Parenting a Preschooler provides busy parents with a visually driven reference filled with information about behaviors, general care advice, and skills development for the three- to five-year-old age group. Also covering preschoolers' vastly changing abilities, it guides parents skills needed for beginning school successfully and what to expect from different types of preschools (e.g., Montessori, child-centered, parent co-op). Coauthored by an M.D. and an educator, it organizes chapters by year and activity or behavior, so that parents can easily find answers to the questions they have about their child at the specific stage he or she is in.

This book offers a completely fresh, visually unmatched, authoritative and all-encompassing perspective on that decisive first year of an infant’s life. Organized according to a baby’s age—allowing readers to find information quickly when they need it—Knack Baby’s First Year covers both the practical “how-tos” and provides hundreds of ways to promote a baby’s growth and development, while also leaving readers with a fuller understanding of the larger issues surrounding a newborn’s first twelve months. • 375 full-color photos• 25 illustrations• Coauthored by a parenting expert and an MD• Organized by age and stage• Special pages for dads
