Self-help β¦ Penny’s Take
Making the "Terrible" Twos Terrific!
John Rosemond Β· 2013
John Rosemond has been writing the parenting column that a quarter of a billion newspaper readers trust for decades, and this revised guide to the toddler years reflects that experience β it is direct, practical, and covers the real challenges parents of 18-to-36-month-olds face. His traditional, structure-first philosophy is not for everyone, and attachment-parenting households will push back on some of his discipline stances. But for parents who want confident, no-nonsense guidance from a credentialed and widely read expert, this delivers.
β¦ Penny’s Take β this is The Review Group’s own editorial assessment. Penny’s analytical review line researched this book from real sources and scored it across the lenses shown below. It’s an honest first-party read β not a page-by-page personal one. The gold β Penny Tested mark is reserved for books Penny reads cover to cover herself.
