Wouldn’t it be great if your child came with an owner’s manual? A how-to book on how to raise your child? And if your child came with such a manual, wouldn’t it be helpful to have someone walk you through it, making that owner’s manual come alive? Michael Gurian and Tim Wright serve as your guides through what they believe is the owner’s manual for your child: Your child’s brain. While the brain doesn’t tell the whole story, it does offer a treasure trove of insights into your son or daughter. Michael and Tim each have over 30 years of experience using brain science research, best-practices, and their own experiences as dads in helping parents read, understand, and implement the gift of your child’s brain, the built-in how-to manual that will help you enjoy the wonder of parenting.

Great Talks especially about parenting boys!!

I have two boys and it’s really great to know that it’s okay for boys to behave the way they are. That they are biological engineered that way and to let them emote their own way (instead of sitting and talking - coz it didn’t work for me!) It helps me to understand my boys more and ways to interact with them better.
