Book
"Well written by experienced professionals, these two books describe child-rearing problems and solutions in brief chapters. Neither book is meant to be read from cover to cover but instead referred to as situations arise, limiting usefulness in the library. Goldstein, who teaches child development at Johns Hopkins University, and coauthor Gallant, a writer specializing in family issues and education, have organized The Parenting Bible into three parts based upon a child's age: the first five years, ages six to nine, and ages ten to 13. Each part is color-coded on the edge of the page and contains topics phrased as a question (e.g., "How can I help my child adjust to moving?") for the appropriate age. The descriptions of children and the resolution of issues are based upon the theories of child development researcher Jean Piaget and psychosocial theorist Erik Erikson, offering an accessible way for parents to understand their theories."--Library Journal
