Overview

Answering a multitude of questions—such as What should a parent do with a child who wants to snack continuously? How should parents deal with a young teen who has declared herself a vegetarian and refuses to eat any type of meat? Or What can parents do with a child who claims he doesn't like what's been prepared, only to turn around and eat it at his friend's house?—this guide explores the relationship between parents, children, and food in a warm, friendly, and supportive way.

Reviews

"This book is just great . . . Bravo!"  —T. Berry Brazelton, MD


"[Her book] can help you feed your child well while avoiding . . . food-centered struggles that can affect the parent-child relationship." —Woman's Day


"There's advice on: the kid who won't eat, the kid who overeats, the kid who demands peanut butter and jelly sandwiches three times a day, the kid who gets hungry after you've cleared away the dishes . . . [Ellyn Satter] helps parents give their children the ultimate gift; a healthy attitude toward food." —American Health


"What I need is a Fairy Godmother of nutrition who can change mealtimes from high-powered negotiation into exquisite exercises in balance. I think I found her. She is Ellyn Satter." —Carla K. Johnson, The Spokesman-Review & Spokane Chronicle
