I always thought popsicles and healthy snacks as an oxymoron until I came upon this book. Images of popsicles were always of this sugary syrupy concoction with the liquid dripping down one's elbows if you dilly dallied in finishing it. Guess that was part of the thrill of eating a popsicle. Childhood whims which somehow stuck around never wanting to leave.All good things  must come to an end with the wellness train chugging into town,  seems to be the popular conception. Anything healthy must be awful. But that idea can be dispelled after going through this book. Williams have conjured up a list of recipes which are not only healthy but will be well received by lovers of popsicles, which by the way must account for most of humankind.A popsicle made according to the ideas presented in this book is worth a try in keeping the kids preoccupied. There are lots of ideas for popsicles, even more so with exotic flavors. Most of the recipes are easy enough for children to prepare themselves which can be  one method of in calculating the value of eating right added to the value of self-reliance by creating and making food for  consumption instead of running to the store.  It will be a good idea to present this book to your children and let them try out the recipes.
