Indispensably useful for understanding aspects of underlying normal development of our babies, children, adolescents, adults, ... how to stay tuned for their patterns, struggles, how to give them space so that they can soothe their own selves, all the while supporting them.
Also, written in an easy way to understand, and dotted with a few little short stories.
Perhaps most importantly, information has been gleamed through observation of 1,000's of children from Dr. Blanning's professional work as a physician.
Dr. Blanning's observation and book on sleep are very congruent with the work of Dr. Gordon Neufeld and also, of Magda Gerber.
Many thanks Dr. Blanning (recommended reading for the planet!)
(if we all read your book and followed your kindly written 'suggestions' or 'way', the world would be a better place!)
