• Used Book in Good Condition

No two babies are the same. Each is a unique individual; each has a personal inventory of abilities and achievements. In this comprehensive and thoroughly illustrated resource, three renowned child-developement specialists - Rona Alexander, Ph.D., CCC-SP; Regi Boehme, OTR; Barbara Cupps, PT - discuss the process of development during the first year of life. The text follows the development of the typical infant from newborn to age 12 months in these vital areas: (1) postural control, (2) gross motor skills, (3) fine motor skills, (4) oral-motor and respiratory functions, and (5) speech and language. Included with each chapter is a summary chart and list of reference materials.
