The Everything Baby's First Food Book: Tasty, Nutritious Meals and Snacks That Even the Pickiest Child Will Love-From Birth to Age 3 (Everything Series)

Rating:
Summary: basics only
Review: As a new mom this book is good for basics but light on details. I found
myself having to buy other books once my son was ready for solids.
I also felt the information jumped around a lot; it would have been nice to have it organized more month to month rather than topic to topic.
Not a bad choice but don't expect to be your only book on food.
Good luck!

Summary: great recipes, good reference
Review: I recommend this book. It has all the basic stuff about feeding and nutrition as well as great, simple recipes, time line for when you should intreduce new foods to your baby and other useful hints.

Rating:
Summary: Overpromises what you'll find on it
Review: I regret buying this book, since it promised to cover different topics, providing lots of different meals ideas, and it is mostly theoretical and has almost no recipes. If you need theory buy this book, but common sense, obvious theory. If you want ideas for your babies meals look for something else.

Summary: Reliable, "user friendly" information
Review: In an ideal format for new parents, Janet Tarlov's The Everything Baby's First Food Book clearly and carefully provides reliable, "user friendly" information on a wide variety of relevant issues including breast-feeding vs. bottle feeding; identifying food allergies; avoiding foods that can make baby uncomfortable or sick; how to deal with a baby who refuses to eat; deciphering nutrition labels; feeding baby on trips or in restaurants; and much, much more. The Everything Baby's First Food Book is an invaluable, highly recommended compendium of advice and instruction for parents seeking to feed their baby from birth through the toddler years with a healthy, nutritious, and tasty diet at home or on the go.

Summary: The best baby reference book ever!!!
Review: This book is a must for all first time mothers and fathers. It gives detailed information on how to feed your baby from birth to toddler with excellent examples and food product information. My husband and I especially found the alternatives to junk food section very helpful. We want to feed our daughter healthy food, and now we know the healthy altenatives to junk food. Also, this book gives examples on how to pack healthy lunches and snacks. Bravo!!!

Summary: basics only
Review: This is a good book and has only one chapter that interests me (The one on making homemade baby food). The other chapters contain info on breastfeeding, formula feeding, etc. This information is redundant because I purchased two books (What to Expect When You're Expecting, and What To Expect The First Year) that included most of the same info.
