I am asked daily on book recommendations for parents. There are so many stages of child development, sleep, eating, gentle parenting, gentle disciplining, etc that I can’t possibly list them all every single time someone asks so I decided it was a great time to create an evolving list of books I have read plus ones that are next on my list!
