From the widely acclaimed HOW TO TALK series, discover tried and tested communication strategies to survive - and thrive - with kids ages 2-7

The all-new content in this book deals with struggles familiar to every parent, relative, teacher and childminder. How do you respond to the toddler who won´t brush his teeth? The preschooler who pinches the baby? The child who throws everything she can reach?

It´s hard to be a little kid. It´s hard to be an adult responsible for that little kid. And it´s really hard to think about effective communication when the toast is burning, the baby is crying and you´re exhausted.

This book will help readers do just that. Organized according to everyday challenges and conflicts, and including real-life examples and the series´ trademark cartoons, this book is a survival manual of communication tools, including a chapter that addresses the special needs of children with sensory processing or autism spectrum disorders.
