The Toddler Owner's Manual: perating Instructions, Trouble-Shooting Tips, and Advice on System Maintenance

Description

The Baby Owner's Manual has taught hundreds of thousands of readers how to "operate" their newborns and infants. But as technology evolves, so too will baby-and before long, there's a toddler in the house! With the same hilarious blend of schematic diagrams, troubleshooting tips, and step-by-step instructions, The Toddler Owner's Manual explores issues of childhood from ages one to three. Does your toddler refuse to consume fuel? Are there viruses in her system? Do you need to reprogram her sleep routine? Whatever your concerns, you'll find the answers here-courtesy of pediatric psychologist Dr. Brett Kuhn and coauthor Joe Borgenicht.
