Marzollo inspires dads and dads-to-be in this unique advice-filled guide that covers all aspects of infant development from the physical and social to the intellectual, psychological, and creative. Liberally illustrated with Trivas's humorous line drawings and divided into chapters based on chronological months of a baby's age, her book provides step-by-step instructions on fixing bottles, bathing and feeding, changing a diaper, toilet training, helping a child develop language skills, and disciplining the older baby. Marzollo discusses child safety and provides a selection of toys and books with suggestions for other safe play objects. She also offers tips on helping with motor skill development and giving a birthday party for a one-year-old. This book, which "shows fathers how they can participate and celebrate in the development of their babies' earliest months," is a light, thoughtful, reassuring, and informative fatherhood manual that is essential for all public library collections.
