Has anyone read 'Beyond Toddlerdom' by Christopher Green?

Would you recommend it?
I enjoyed his Toddler Taming book. A friend bought it for me just after I had my second child. I was really struggling with 'sibling rivalry' and it saved my sanity at the time!
Now my two are 4 and 6 just wondered if anyone had found any useful nuggets in his follow up.

I've not read this but would be interested in any replies you get.

I read sooo many baby books (best one which became my 'bible' was 'What They Don't Tell you About Being a Mother and Looking After Babies' - I still refer to it!) and would now like to get a book with help/hints/guidance on Toddlerhood and beyond.

Has anyone read any books that they found particularly helpful? I've nearly bought this one by C.Green but I'm not sure......

Spring, hear hear about "What they don't tell you", I think it is BRILLIANT. Can you believe that it is out of print now? I'm so glad I came across it, shame it runs out at aged two. Although I don't think I could use all of Christopher Green's techniques I do think Toddler Taming was a an excellent book and would also like to hear if anyone's bought his follow-up.

I bought it!

Had some good bits in it, ages 5-12. How they think, feel and behave. good for school information, when they start, the first few years, friendships, behaviour, learning difficulties etc.

Also goes a bit deeper into diet, weight, death, divorce and religion. Sex eduction, tv, computers and internet. It covers everything really and I found it a good continuation, as I particularly liked Toddler Taming and found it very useful. I bought this just before my eldest started school and when we needed some help with 'discipline', and found it helpful and reassuring.

Interested in this thread?
