"Can you recommend a good book that isn't too heavy in it's presentation
that
would provide more info about the child development?"
The best ones I've seen that were specifically about child development at the
different ages were the series by Louise Bates Ames of the Gesell Institute
of Child Development (or something like that!). There is a small little book
for each age and I find them at my local library (although they're also on
amazon). They were published back in the 70's so there is quite a lot you have to
ignore (the parts giving parenting advise for sure), but thankfully most of
the books are focused specifically on what behavioural stages each age brings,
and how kids think at different age. I've found them very helpful and a
really quick read...well, especially is you do like I do, and just skim through for
the parts that pertain to us :)
