Publisher's Synopsis
This detailed examination of young children follows their physical, social, intellectual, emotional and moral development from birth to age five. It provides a wealth of specific information about child development, with factual answers about a range of child-rearing questions, including whether newborn babies see in colour, the average height, weight and growth rates of young children, and the vocabulary range of the under 5's. The text has been illustrated with tables and charts designed to simplify the text and also to satisfy parents' curiosity about their newborn children.
