Book : First-time Mom
Category : Marriage & Relationships, Parenting, Video Permalink
Here’s one parenting book I’d like to recommend today.
First-time Mom, by Dr. Kevin Leman.
Getting off on the right foot - from birth to first grade
After a friend of mine shared how insightful the book is, I finally managed to get a copy from the local library (again, thanks to another friend who borrowed it for me during her trip to library!)
Dr. Leman is a Christian psychologist with decades of family-counselling experience. His books are mostly about parenting, marriage and family issues.
His writing is really easy to read and he shares lots of real-life examples as well, making it easier for us to understand the points he’s trying to put across.
Though I’m no longer a ‘first-time mom’ when I read the book, I still find many useful tips and info. On handling toddlers and kids’ tantrums, parenting values and ‘mistakes’ we tend to make, etc.
In fact, later on I think I’ll share parts of the book which I personally find interesting and insightful.
Anyway, if you’d like to get a little preview of his ‘value-packed parenting’ talk, click HERE to watch a video clip on youtube.com
Happy parenting!

I really like Kevin Leman’s books and how he can bring humor to almost any situation. There’s a lot more information on Value Packed Parenting on a another website, PraiseStore.com. Kevin Leman’s website doesn’t give much info.
