Your Self-Confident Baby
By Magda Gerber and Allison Johnson
I had great trepidation about motherhood, and so I've read a lot of child-rearing guides. This one was recommended to me by our friends Gary Ross [director of Seabiscuit] and Allison Thomas [coproducer of Pleasantville]. It presents the Resources for Infant Educarers approach to baby care. This book gave me a practical guide to giving my children enough room, getting out of the way of their development, and not imposing my own agenda on them. I really want to stress that motherhood is phenomenally difficult, and while this book has been an amazing resource for me, I don't believe there is only one way to parent a child.
