Welcome to the Parent Guide website by Shanta Everington, author of Baby’s First Year: A Parent’s Guide and The Terrible Twos:
A Parent’s Guide (Need2Know Books) and mum of two.
Here you can read about my parent guides, as well as my pick of favourite parenting books, along with guest contributions.
I have read (too) many parenting books. Some have given me new insights and ideas, some have made me laugh out loud or nod in recognition, while others have made me want to dig my eyeballs out with a spoon. I believe in non-prescriptive parenting advice, and like books that support reflective parents in developing their thinking. I am partial to a bit of humour and memoir, and actively dislike parenting books written by non-parents.
