A guide for fathers or soon-to-be fathers who want to learn how to enjoy the first months of their babies’ lives, this book covers all aspects of maturation from intellectual and social to creative and physical, with each milestone in the baby’s development highlighted on a two-page spread. The format and drawings inform fathers on what to expect, when to expect it and what they can do to help. It also includes practical food and sleeping suggestions, games and activities, a timeline charting a baby’s progression from activity to activity, and recommendations for toy, play equipment and book selections.
