  Aiming to help parents to understand their child's progress from birth to adolescence, this book covers: the first years of life - getting to know the world, developing self-image and self-esteem; the school years - discovering how to learn and relate to others, understanding abstract concepts and fostering creative and artistic ability; and adolescence - learning to cope emotionally and physically with approaching adulthood. In addition to the main stages of development, the book includes information on specific developmental delay, such as reading problems or bed-wetting, where a child's general progress is satisfactory but one or more specific skills may be somewhat delayed.
