When A Child Is Different

HARRY BAKWIN M.D.

Maria Egg has written a wise and understanding book for the parents of mentally retarded children. The book is filled with practical suggestions about every-day management—toilet training, self-feeding, dressing, and undressing, how to handle the siblings, the child in the community and the like. Emphasis is placed on family responsibility, rather than community responsibility, for the care of the retarded child. Families with a retarded child should find solace and help in this small, well-written book.
