The road to sleep training is not always easy. In fact, most of us don’t even think of what we do at night as ‘training’. It is how we end the day, and we seldom consider the long term effects of our efforts.
After a day of play, interaction and loving our baby, we lay them into bed, sing a lullaby and kiss their forehead. We may smile, confident that baby will sleep through the night.
Often, the dream of a peaceful night for our family is replaced by a crying baby, angry toddler and frustrated parent. The hope for peaceful baby sleep is gone, and toddler sleep seems like a myth.
We have a bedtime routine, sing every nursery rhyme ever written and buy cute nightlights . What we fail to realize is the role our child’s temperament plays in sleep training.
In ‘Sleep and Your Child’s Temperament’, discover how important your child’s personality is in achieving the rest they need. Whether baby sleep, toddler sleep or the sleep of preschool children, learn how to help your child – and you – get a good night’s sleep.

My thoughts: This is a book I wish I had owned back when my little one was born. Sleep is an issue that I still struggle with when it comes to my daughter. I was married when my daughter was an infant, and I tried everything. I had no coöperation from her dad, and so I was on my own. He was constantly critical of my attempts, and I never felt right letting her cry it out.
The book is organized well, and I believe that parents will be able to find exactly what they are looking for. There is not a criticism–only real help for parents who just want to get some sleep and help their child have the best sleep they can. This book is smart in continuing the saga past the infancy stage. I love the fact that the author recognizes that sleep is not something that is no longer a battle once infancy is over. This is an easy-to-read book, and I think all parents and expectant parents could learn a lot from the author’s wisdom.
