Infants, Children, and Adolescents

Hi, I love how the book divides the development of human beings by age, physical development, socio-emotional development, and cognitive development. I also love how the important words are highlighted.

Book that tells a story

I loved the way the author brought in stories of various children. I felt like I got to know the children throughout their stages of development. A great textbook!
