Parent's diet Handbook : A Mother and Daughter's Journey in a Junk Food Society

By Sue Kuivanen

A compassionate, researched and practical true story inspires us on how to feed children better. The account begins with a grassroots effort to support a crashing school lunch program. Next the book delves into the new level and prominence of sugar in the diet of children today, followed by an intimate and provocative look into today's parent's uncertain reality with early childhood tooth decay. We gain greater insight about the role of shopping, fruits, and gardening, and how to have more meals using less meat. This is not another health or cookbook, and it goes beyond the labels of vegan, vegetarian, or meat diet paths to where all health and ecology conscious people can meet. This book synthesizes the latest nutritional information and efforts into a story you won't want to put down. Overflowing with ideas and inspiration, Parent's Diet Handbook is a must read for all childcare providers and leaders everywhere who make decisions that affect the diets of children.
