, August 19, 1996 "...A sourcebook for parents."-Mothering Sharon Yntema's first
book, now in an eleventh, updated printing, launched her as a worldwide authority
on raising a healthy infant and toddler on a vegetarian diet. Nearly 50,000 copies
have been sold, and the book's sales show no signs of slowing down! From personal
experience, backed by extensive research and documentation, Yntema demonstrates
that babies can thrive on a meatless diet. Advice ranges from ways to prepare
foods that will fulfill all of a baby's nutritional requirements to dealing with
allergic or fussy eaters. Interviews with successful vegetarian parents supplement
the clear, well-organized information. Useful charts and tables help readers
find answers to specific questions. "I think this book is great. The author has
extensively researched and documented the topics she covers, and yet she's presented
them in a relaxed and easy-to-read style. The information she offers is current,
accurate, and extensive: it will give parents the knowledge and confidence necessary
to raise their child on a meatless diet." -Vegetarian Times
