    Summary: 
    Using the relational development approach of Gordon Neufeld, the author offers a road map to making sense of the behavior of young children and understanding their developmental growth.
    "Baffling and beloved, with the capacity to go from joy to frustration in seconds, young children are some of the most misunderstood people on the planet. The key to understanding them lies in realizing that their challenging behaviour is not personal, nor is it a disorder or deficit. Based on science and the relational developmental approach of renowned psychologist and bestselling author Gordon Neufeld, this book tells the story of how young children develop. Engagingly written, with compassion for its subjects and rich with stories from them and their parents, it will forever change the way you think of the preschoolers in your life." --Back cover.
