I found the author's suggestions reasonable and her writing pleasant. You won't feel badgered or overwhelmed when you read this. I picked up some good ideas on combos for the 9 month era, which is good, because I think my daughter is tiring of grain + fruit or veggie at every meal! My favorite discovery is tofu blended with banana. YUM! (so that's how they make those yummy and expensive soy shakes!) There are lots of great toddler recipes, and a few others for all ages that I might try. Overall, good information, presented in a simple and useful format.
Great guide for introducing solids
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago
I followed this book exclusively when introducing my daughter to solids and am doing the same for my son. So far, knock wood, no food allergies for either one. The thing I found the most useful was the table which suggested minimum ages to introduce particular foods. Also, loved this book because it reinforced for me how easy it is to make your own "babyfood" as opposed to buying the jarred stuff. The book I have was handed down through two other moms. Wish it would come back into print.
Best baby food book I've tried.

This is a great book. Very relaxed and simple presentation. Supportive approach and not extremist. Very balanced advice. I tried the Super Baby Food book, but after I read this one in our library. I took the SBF back and ordered this on-line. Good luck!
Baby food made simple
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 24 years ago
I found this book to be very helpful, finally making baby food sounds easy. The recipes cover ages from 6 months through 3 years. She also includes many recipes for the entire family. I use the book mainly as a cookbook, refering to other books for nutritional guidlines for my son.
