The Secret Language of Babies: The Body Language of ... (ISBN 0764132490)

Unlocks the Code to Baby Body Language:
This book talks about the different gestures and sounds that babies make and how these are signals to parents that they are trying to communicate. For example, we would usually dismiss a baby's first smile as a reflex, that it did not mean anything. The authors, however, explain otherwise. This first smile and eye contact is a baby's first attempt to try to connect with his/her parents. The book goes on further to explain the different cries and how to interpret whether baby needs a diaper change, is hungry, or is in pain. Other chapters include baby's hand gestures and the meaning of baby babble. This is a useuful book since not only does it talk about the things babies do, but also gives suggestions to parents about toys and games that encourage interaction. It also introduces parents to the pros and cons of teaching baby sign language. All in all, this is an excellent book for would-be parents and parents alike.

misleading:
I thought this book would give insight on what a baby's different cries were for. It didn't do this. It only stated some obvious observations.

Secret Language of Babies:
If you spend an equal time reading the book/time with baby ,you will know what baby is saying. The book gave me hints of what to look for.
