Customer Reviews

Bought this as a gift for new parents

I bought this as a gift for new parents to go along with a baby food making kit that comes with freezing trays to freeze extra baby food. It will make a wonderful, organic baby shower gift I am proud to give.

Great Recipes

I love this book. I already star to cook meals at home for my baby. The down side: you gotta be a full time Mom in order to cook that deliciuos, but elaborated meals. Good deal.

Great recipes

I loved this book and used it almost daily until my son was about 1 1/2. Many of the reviewers complain that the author's advice was "bad". I think it's fair to keep in mind the book was published in the UK so standards are going to be different. Just read up for the latest guidelines. I found it refreshing to have a positive spin on formula fed babies. Why is that when it comes to breastfed vs formula fed, this is where parents draw the line on being understanding, compasionate or plain minding their own business? Back to the book, "Days out cakes" are great. Pasta sauce with a carrot base is also good. This is a cook book not a parenting bible! I can see that it might be over the top cooking for kids but cooking is our thing so that's why we liked it so much. If you just want to get meals over with you might find this book annoying.

Wonderful organic recipes

This book has been extremely helpful to me in preparing my daughter's meals. The recipes are varied and not too time consuming. I agree that organic food is better for babies (and everyone), but this book could be used for conventional cooking as well. Ms. Vann does not focus as much on general information and guidance about nutrition and feeding. For these topics, I found Ellyn Satter "Child of Mine" to be quite helpful.

Very good cookbook

I wish I bought this book sooner! It is just simply a great cookbook with plenty of healthy recipes. The photographs are great. The recipes are easy to make. The author lets you know which ones can be kept in the freezer and for how long. I found plenty of ideas in it for my 1 and 5 year old. Definitely worth buing!
