Hi
I am looking for a book for some cousins of mine. They have twin 2 year old boys (birthdays today!

I want to get "them" a book about the development of boys that I have seen before. The theme is that boys are great, they just have a lot of energy. The paperback version of it has a boy running, wearing a red cape, and holding a stick. It has a slight christian bent, but not too overwhelming. I am hoping someone here knows what I am talking about, and knows the name of the book. I think their parents would really appreciate it.

Thank you all.

It seems like I've seen that cover, but I don't remember what the book was!

Here's an Amazon list of books about raising boys. My ex-husband read "Real Boys" from that list and got a LOT out of it. There's also The Wonder of Boys which I haven't read, but heard good things about.

Raising Your Spirited Child is excellent for spirited kids of either gender.

Think I found it!

Here - Wild Things

And, bleh, it seems very authoritarian!

Make a note to see if they're indigo boys or not
