Hello Ladies,
I was wondering if anyone here has read any of the Louis Bates Ames Books? She has titles such as: Your Four Year Old: Wild and Wonderful, and Your Five Year Old: Sunny and Serene. You can find the books HERE

I'm struggling a bit to understand some of the changes I've noticed in my 8 going on 9 year old, and was wondering if the book on 9 year olds might be helpful.
Thanks!

It's been a long time since I read them - but I did read many of them when my oldest sons were those ages. I think they are very helpful in getting a picture of child development and what is common at certain ages.   This brings back memories - a very funny one of my oldest and the book, Your Seven Year Old: Life in a Minor Key.
