 Great in theory and practice October 27, 2008
Shelly Vander (East Bay, CA)
This book has that hard-to-find balance of great explanation of theory and practical application of that theory.
I've barely been able to set it down and has already helped me understand why my sweet even-keeled 2 year-old has become irrational (I know she's 2...) and emotional. But for me, understanding why 2 year-olds are so labile and illogical helps me respond better. Responding differently has helped our day go much more smoothly.
Toddler Demystified! July 1, 2008

I found this book to have great information. Not only answers the what but the why as well.
Wow! Parents of toddlers: GET this book! June 15, 2008

This book has been a great resource to me. As my husband was deployed overseas I suddenly became a "single parent" to a toddler...I was dealing with "normal" toddler behaviors, as well as separation anxiety. "The Emotional Life of the Toddler" has opened my eyes, given me insight into my child's personality and helped to make me feel less stressed by knowing these behaviors are characteristic of a toddler! Grab it up if you are struggling or want to better uderstand your position as a parent of a toddler! :)
Psychological look at toddlerhood May 20, 2008

I'm studying child development, so this book has been great! Very easy to read and filled with enjoyable stories. It may not be so useful to parents though. I tried to pass it along to someone I babysit for, and I think it was too over her head. I think it's a great overview though for people who already have a strong grasp of the basics of dealing with toddlerhood.
 long on psychology, short on practicality March 30, 2008

The Emotional Life of a Toddler is a good book for you if you're interested in the attachment theory or attachment parenting viewpoint of toddler psychology, and this book does read like a psychology text. It offers some insight into the whys, which will help you understand your toddler as a whirlwind of emotion and contradiction; however, the book does not offer any hows for living day-to-day with your tot. Therefore, if you are looking for practical advice and tips, skip this book and head to Toddler 411, Pocket Parent, No Cry Discipline Solution, or the dozen of other books that address toddler behavior.
