The Baby in the Mirror: A Childs World from Birth to Three

For Charles Fernyhough, the birth of his daughter Athena was an opportunity to re-evaluate much of what he had learned as a lecturer and researcher in developmental psychology. Drawing on the detailed notes he kept on her development, Fernyhough uses Athena's story as an entry point into an account of how a child's mind develops before the age of three. Unlike dry childcare manuals, or patronising TV tie-ins, this unique book taps into a parent's wonder at the processes of psychological development in an engaging, child-centred way. It is written with a father's tenderness, and a novelist's empathy and style. Funny, touching and fascinating, it will allow parents to understand the extraordinary journey their child makes during the momentous first three years of life.
