THE GENTLE SLEEP BOOK: A GUIDE FOR CALM BABIES, TODDLERS AND PRE-SCHOOLERS
Book ID/图书代码： 07980014B70623
English Summary/英文概要： This book offers gentle, no-tears, sleep solutions for exhausted parents of newborns to five-year-olds. A large percentage of parents find their young child’s sleep - or lack of – provoking and exhausting. This new book is an indispensable guide for parents, whatever difficulties they are facing with their child’s sleep - from the day they bring their newborn home until their child is settled into school. Examining everything from frequent night waking in babyhood, through bedwetting in toddlerhood, to nightmares and refusal to go to bed in pre-schoolers, this book provides extensive scientific and anecdotal information, plus plenty of persuasive suggestions, to help everyone get a good night’s sleep. This is a gentle, evidence-based approach that doesn’t involve leaving a baby to cry or shutting a sobbing child in their bedroom.
Very few books on the market concentrate on this age range. Most focus only on the under-ones or separate their advice into very small age brackets, meaning parents have to buy several books as their child’s sleep problems change. THE GENTLE SLEEP BOOK includes the science of sleep and cutting-edge research which sheds new light on this common problem area.
Chinese Summary/中文概要： 如果你是一名儿童的父母，且你的孩子介于新生儿和五岁孩童之间，而筋疲力尽的你却又必须哄小孩睡觉，那么本书可以为你提供各种温柔的睡觉策略而使你的孩子不必哭闹。
很多家长都发现孩子们的睡眠十分令人烦恼且累人。因此，这本全新的书籍将成为这些家长们必不可少的参考指南，从将新生儿从医院接回家的那天起，直到孩子们进入学校，安定下来，不论他们所面对的是孩子们的何种睡眠问题，本书都可以一一帮助他们解决。从婴儿时期夜间频繁的醒来，到蹒跚学步时期的尿床，再到做恶梦以及不愿在学前班睡午觉等等，本书将为你提供大量的科学依据和奇闻轶事的相关信息，再加上大量极具说服力的建议，从而帮助大家都能睡个好觉。总之，本书中所述的方法温柔且有据可依，不会不管你正在哇哇大哭的孩子，也不会把正在呜咽的孩子关在寝室里。
目前市面上极少能有书籍专注于0-5岁这一年龄段。绝大部分的书籍要么只聚焦于1岁左右的儿童，要么便将所有的建议按年龄类别进行划分，这就意味着家长们要随着孩子们睡眠问题的变化而购买数本相关书籍。《柔睡指南》中涵盖了有关于睡眠的科学知识及最尖端的研究成果，从而从全新的角度来看待这一常见问题。（DC）
