Review # 1 was written on 2018-04-07 00:00:00 Joe Wittman This book was exactly what I was looking for. It's a clear, concise set of guildelines re healthy eating broken down into chapters dealing with different parts of the composition of foods (fats, protein, etc), food groups, and diets across the lifespan. I feel so much better able to understand the helathy food choices I want to make for myself and my son now. I do have a couple of complaints about the book. For one thing, there needs to be a new edition. This book is more than 10 years old, and while it's still generally accurate, it could use a number of updates to the information. Secondly, after a while the bullet-point format of most of the chapters started to get to me. It does make the information easy to consume and look back for, but it also detracts from the readability. A little narrative in between the bullet points would have been helpful. All in all though this is a great help in planning food for the family and gives good guidelines for kids in addition to what I had already known about how to feed myself healthy food. I wish I could give it 4.5 stars, but being forced to choose I put it a little closer to the 4 than the 5 mark.

Review # 2 was written on 2015-01-03 00:00:00 Helen Terry I picked up this book after having read, and loved, the Sears' The baby Book, and I was not disappointed. Not only did I learn so much about the right stuff to feed my kids, I also found it incredibly helpful in informing my own food choices. My whole family eats more healthfully because of this book.
