Oberlander, of the new 4th edition of the early childhood developmental parenting resource, SLOW AND STEADY GET ME READY, answers preschool questions on the website below. This inexpensive international best-selling book helps maximize the intellectual growth of young children (birth to age 5) to prevent them from being left behind. It also helps children with special needs. http://www.home-school.com/experts/preschool ********************************************************* "The Perilous Fight" chronicles the United States in World War II from the beginning to the surrender of the Japanese in 1945.
