Excellent Book for New Parents!

Other than the scary clown hair on the baby on the cover--this is a really helpful guide to a new baby's cognitive and physical development! It's much more practical than some of the other more popular titles that I have read. The information is very clear, concise and extremely well organized. It breaks a baby's developmental stages down into 3-month blocks, which makes more sense to me than the month-by-month formats of other books--since babies all develop at a slightly different pace. I highly recommend this title for all parents who are interested in better understanding how their baby is developing!
