'A book all adults should read.'

Javier Ortigosa, Psychotherapist, Spain

'In this well written and easy to read book for parents, Álvaro Bilbao, PhD, a neuropsychologist and father of three, gives insight into how a child's early brain development shapes their world and affects their learning and behavior. Drawing on years of clinical practice and sound neuroscience, Dr. Bilbao provides parents with practical, age-appropriate strategies for everyday life to foster a child's intellectual and emotional growth to help them reach their full potential. I highly recommend this book to all those raising young children.'
