Written by a grandparent herself our first recommendation is “The Gardener and The Carpenter”. Allison Gopkik is a prominent child development brain researcher.

Dear Parent: Caring for Infants with Respect by Magda Gerber –

In the voice of the founder of RIE, Magda Gerber, “Dear Parent” is our recommended RIE grandparent book. Gerber’s writing is plain and straight forward which seems to resonate deeply.
