This book is truly designed for those who have never read anything about feeding their baby or toddler. I did not really find any of the information new or very useful. Some of the recipes look simple enough to try, but I was disappointed that they do not include basic nutritional information. I would also have preferred to see mention of portion sizes, as well as healthy non-perishable snack ideas for toting in the diaper bag (my toddler is not yet ready for raw veggies).But if you are looking for just the very basics and don't really need details or a lot of information, this might be for you. I personally find the information I get in some of my magazine subscriptions more useful.
