Toddler Owner’s Manual

Is your toddler a picky-eater model? Or worse, a no-eater model? The Toddler Owner’s Manual ($16) can help. The chapter on “programming mealtime behavior protocols” is just one of the many practical sections in this easy-to-read book. Everything you need to know to deal with a one to three year old is here, from information on developmental milestones in all categories, helpful discipline tips, and an important section on safety and emergencies. While the toddler-as-electrical-appliance gimmick won’t appeal to everyone, the layout of the book makes it equally good for reading straight through or flipping to a specific issue, such as “programming the toddler for self-waste disposal”.
