Product Reviews:
  Awesome 
This book is great for all those busy parents. Recipes are easy to make and quick. Best book out there.
  Great cookbook for the family 
The recipes in this cookbook are simple, tasty and healthy. Our whole family has enjoyed. We particularly like the Shrimp and Pepper Stir Fry and the Chocolate Oatmeal Cookies. Nice addition to a busy parent's cookbook collection.
  Recipe Title "Rice A Roni and Chicken"? 
I can't figure out how 'Rice a Roni and chicken' made it into a COOKBOOK that I paid for.

About the only interesting thing in this book was a recipe for corn muffins with broccoli.
  Mostly Recipes 
There's a lot of good information here. As a teacher of twenty-five years, and as a parent, I've dealt with more than my share of overweight kids, and read everything that comes along on the subject. And although this book is one of the better ones out there, I've been recommending the CD talk "The Fat Kid's Diet: Stop Childhood Obesity In Your Home," available here at Amazon, to the parents who come to me with their concerns. It's brief, sensible, and right to the point.
  Very Helpful 
I found this book to be very helfpul in my never-ending quest to come up with meal ideas for my toddler that are healthy and appealing to him. The meals really are easy to prepare and I've yet to strike out in terms of my son actually eating the food. I would definitely rec this book for the recipes and tips geared towards younger, pickier eaters.
