This book is an excellent resource for parents and caregivers of black children during their first five years of life. Questions addressed are: How do I find a pediatrician who shares my values? What developmental milestones should I watch for? How do I continue to breast-feed after I go back to work? Should I let my child sleep in our bed? How can I discipline my child without spanking? Should I straighten my child’s hair? What should I say to my child about race? Are all-black preschools best? When do I find time for myself?
