• This is the perfect book for parents in distress - super easy and quick read. Very concise and easy to implement. This is a great beginner's guide to Gentle/Positive Discipline and I can't wait to read more. We have been using the techniques in this book for about a week and have noticed significant improvement in our relationship with our three-year-old and also in our entire household attitude. I especially liked the tone is the book - it was not condescending or blaming at all. I recommend this book for anyone wanting to break into positive discipline. This is a great place to start.
• If I could recommend only one book to parents (and teachers) of toddlers, it would be this one. Why? Well, for one thing, it's been in print for 25 years now- the advice offered is time tested, and it works! If you follow the guidelines offered in this book you may just find that the toddler years are more delightful than terrible. This book is just what it says it is- a practical guide to caring for and understanding your toddler. Clear, concise chapters (important for tired parents who don't have hours to read tomes), include short reflections and experiences from real families, and gorgeous photographs that underline the message of the text. The book offers insight into your child's behavior and feelings, and gives you concrete suggestions for how to approach common problems like biting, or sleep issues. You can read the whole book at once, and/or use it as a resource and flip to the sections that address your most pressing questions. It's all covered here- from temper tantrums to potty training, from sibling relationships to how to find and choose good childcare, from taking care of yourself to limit setting and talking with your toddler in ways that will encourage cooperation. The Third Edition even includes easy to prepare recipes for healthy, good tasting food, and the best play dough recipe ever! 1,2,3 The Toddler Years is encouraging, and will give you confidence in your ability to navigate and guide your child successfully through the sometimes bumpy road of the toddler years.
• Changed the way I communicate with my toddler!
• This book was really good, but honestly, much of the advice was in a lot of the blogs I follow (Montessori and Gerber style parenting stuff).
  It does, however, have a killer play dough recipe in the back.
• This was an awesome read that really helped me get my brace myself for the terrible twos. Its not an instant curer but it is a great sanity check!
• I have been an RIE-devotee since my toddler was a newborn. And while I don't follow it 100%, it all makes sense to me. This is a fantastic primer for toddlerdom, and has really helped our days and nights.
• I love this book. It's a quick and easy read, which busy parents will appreciate, and nicely divided into concise chapters giving clear and simple advice on issues that arise frequently with toddlers. The advice in the first chapter (Let ME Choose) has proved invaluable time and time again and was worth the purchase for that alone. It has helped prevent numerous tantrums!
  
  Whilst it won't provide a solution for every issue you'll encounter with your child, it does give solid advice on which you can lay the foundations of successful parenting and a mutually respectful relationship between you and your child.
• The book has great techniques and tips for grandparents as well as parents. I wish the pictures were updated and in color as is the cover. It would make the reading more pleasurable!
