What Is My Child Trying to Say (Without Using Words)?

If you've ever found yourself in Tesco with a toddler screaming so loudly the crisps rattled on the shelves, this book is for you. What Is My Child Trying to Say (Without Using Words) is the messy, honest, and hilarious survival guide every parent of small children secretly needs.

Toddlers don't come with subtitles. They flop dramatically in car parks, glare at you for cutting toast the "wrong" way, or throw peas across the room like confetti - and you're left wondering: what are they actually trying to tell me? This book translates the chaos. With humour, empathy, and the occasional snot-smeared hug, Helen Rose decodes the silent (and not-so-silent) language of tantrums, food battles, bedtime olympics, and car seat protests.

¿ Perfect for parents who:

Feel like full-time toddler translators

Need reassurance that it's not just them

Want to laugh instead of cry when the "wrong colour cup" ruins their day

From supermarket meltdowns to bedtime standoffs, this isn't about "fixing" your child - it's about seeing the love and the logic hiding under the noise. Equal parts relatable storytelling, practical insight, and comic relief, this book will leave you thinking: oh thank God, it's not just me.
