Excellent

Although I was hoping for more some tips during pregnancy, this is an excellent book for raising your baby green. It has some fantastic tips on everything from painting your room to laundry detergents. Some of these tips are even helpful for you even if you are not expecting a child or work with children. I highly recommend it.

Wonderful!!!

What a great book!!! So much detailed information, with interesting facts and studies, I could hardly put it down. This book is a must for anyone thinking about having children, or just wanting to improve the quality of their life. You'll soon realize that there is a lot you can do to make your house and your lifestlye a healthier one.

Fantastic Book!

This book was a gift for a friend who is pregnant with her first child. I heard an interview on NPR's People's Pharmacy and expected the book to great. I was thrilled. It was better than I imagined. My friend loved it too and is excited to apply some of the great advice. I recommend this book to anyone who has children or is thinking of starting a family.

The BEST baby book - essential for every parent!!!!!!

This book is incredibly helpful and I am so grateful to finally have a resource like this. With all of the harmful things in our environment today, it is hard to navigate through it all and know you are doing the very best to raise a healthy child. This book helps me feel empowered. I am giving this book at every baby shower I go to. If you only buy or have time to ready one baby book - this is the one!!!!
