I originally bought this to share with a friend. Someone who has the cutest little girl, but she is becoming dangeroulsy overweight. I actually found that I could not put it down! This is good information not just for parents who have kids that are overweight, but EVERY parent should read this! It is as much about being a good parent to your kids and giving them the best diet you can, while teaching them the benefits to a good, healthy diet. It is up to us, as parents, to teach them right from wrong in all things; especially what they put into their bodies.I really liked the chapter on dealing with birthday parties and special occasions like that. They are tough. It's hard to imaging a kids' birthday party withouth cake, ice cream, cupcakes, soda, candy-filled goodie bags, etc. Sarah does offer some great suggestions there. Also helpful are the numerous recipes that both parents and kids can enjoy. She's got some amazing ideas for breakfasts, lunches, dinners, snacks, and desserts. I'll be putting some of these into my own recipe collection.This book is easily worth 5 stars and is a goldmine of information at many times the price. I highly, highly recommend it to any parent who cares about their children.
