This is a wonderful
resource for therapists and healthcare professionals alike. It covers
basics of infant and childhood nutrition and mealtime interaction.
It provides information on nutrition for pregnancy, breast feeding,
calories and normal growth, introduction of solids, feeding the toddler,
mealtime partnerships, the overweight child, and childhood eating
disorders.
This book is a
must in the library of every parent and professional interested in
feeding with infants and young children. It provides very well written,
friendly, common sense, and entertaining information based on the
beliefs that mealtimes are partnerships, loving relationships between
infants and parents. Ms. Ellyn Satter emphasizes the celebration and joy
of mealtimes. She says, " Feeding is going well if both you and
your child are having a good time."
