Book Reviews of Super Baby Food
Book Review: A SUPER book.
Summary: 5 Stars
Painstakingly researched, well-written, and organized in a "user-friendly" manner, this book is unrivaled in its field. It is, to say the least, jam-packed with useful and interesting information about nutrition, common food allergies, and baby development, as well as a host of other topics of concern to parents of a baby or toddler. In addition ---and this is what really makes this book stand out--- it gives parents very specific and easy-to-follow instructions regarding HOW to implement the super baby food diet: at what ages to introduce which foods, how to prepare and store baby food, feeding schedules for babies of various ages, and much more.My little boy was raised on Ruth's super baby food diet, and I would have had it no other way!

This is a great resource for moms and dads who want to provide their baby with the most healthful feeding solutions. It is very comprehensive and easy to follow.

A great investment!Book Review: A Super(b) Baby Food book
Summary: 5 Stars
The title says it all: It is a 'Super(b) Baby Food' book! There is so much you can do so wrong and so much you can do so right - this book explains EVERYTHING to the point of paranoia that only a parent can assume about their baby. She doesn't just make it look easy - it IS easy, written without assuming that you know too much or too little; and written with love, from a mother to other mothers and fathers. It is a must for any new parents library, to pass down the generations, because you can't fall behind with the author's on-line, hands-on support through the internet, that gives you constant updates and newsbreaks as far as the contents of the book are concerned. And the best part? It's not 600 pages on food, food, and food. It is loaded with hundreds of economizing tips & notes. (No matter if it is mentioned on page #67, she repeats it briefly wherever and how ever many times it is necessary, so you can't go wrong.) There are chapters on how to throw a party that won't rob the bank and holiday arts and crafts - just to keep them busy on those there's-nothing-to-do days. Then there's another part which concisely tells you all you need to know including nutritional value, how-to-buy guide, preparation using various cooking methods, storage, freezing and expiry of specific fruits and veggies, aside from other homemade products for baby, mommy and daddy and your baby's domain - the home. Two chapters are devoted solely to nutrition and nutrient breakdowns of foods, and IT'S NOT BORING! But the best is last - that wonderful nutrition bursting diet she has put together. You end up giving your baby such a variety of foods that gives little taste buds a run for THEIR money and not yours. By the time baby is a year old, it is close to being a connoisseur and it's all healthy! And when you have a toddler in hand, her recipes for shop-bought snacks are sooo easy to do yourself, and you pay for the food - not the packaging! Feeding your baby the right food is as important as the loving cuddles that feed the parent-child relationship. This is the undertone of this book. Need I say more?Book Review: A VALUABLE WEALTH OF INFORMATION!
Summary: 5 Stars
The amount of information in this book is really mind-boggling! There is so much, in fact, that I haven't even begun to scratch the surface. I bought the book with the intention of making my daughter's baby food. Everything is covered - which foods to start baby on when feeding solids; cooking, freezing/food storage methods; safety information; breakdown of which new foods to feed baby each month; recipes; nutritional info on different foods; even children's party recipes, decorations and craft projects. When referring to another section in the book, the author makes it a point to list the exact page number, which I find VERY helpful, since I probably wouldn't have time to flip back and forth through the 560+ pages of info.
If you want a comprehensive book on feeding your child plus all sorts of other good info, this book is a real value.
Book Review: A Vegetarian Cookbook
Summary: 2 Stars
While this is a fairly good and informative book, it is by no means comprehensive. This should be sold as a vegetarian cookbook- there are only 5 pages in the chapter on meat, and only 3 meat recipes. I spent more on this book because it was advertised as being one of the very best for making homemade baby food, but now I find that I have to buy another book just to get recipes that use meat. I think that this book is deceiving in the way it is advertised.
