Summary: Raising Vegetarian Children by Stepaniak
Comment: This book teaches implementation of the vegetarian ideal
in meal preparation for children and families. It encourages
a meat-free diet or a lean meat diet. It names specific
vegetables which belong in the diet; namely, alfalfa,
artichokes, asparagus, beans, broccoli, eggplant, escarole, onions, scalions, spinach, sweet potato, apples, bananas,
nuts, spices, olive oil, sesame oil and many others.
The author cautions against buying thawed or re-frozen foods.
She warns of major foodbourne diseases; such as, bacillus
cereus and botulism which are derived from soil contaminants.
Many sample meal plans are presented. In addition, an extensive
vitamin regimen is explained in great detail. The book is a
good purchase. It will help you plan the family diet and
minimize avoidable diseases and disease processes.

Summary: The definitive guide to raising vegetarian and vegan kids
Comment: Joanne Stepaniak and Vesanto Melina have created a much needed resource to serve parents and families, caregivers, and medical practitioners alike. After a thorough introduction discussing all aspects of vegetarian food and life choices (emotional, community, and psychological), the authors give a sound nutritional introduction. They then offer advice chronologically, beginning with nutrition for breastfeeding moms and continuing through introducing solids and feeding picky teens. The authors take a very down-to-earth approach, offering advice for parents of kids who are feeling alienated, or who want to eat meat away from home.
Each stage of life has different nutritional concerns. Stepaniak and Melina address the stages with age-specific menu plans using recipes from Part 3 of the book. The authors begin Part 3 by giving some helpful cooking recommendations for new or aspiring "healthy" cooks. There are many easy-to-prepare, kid-friendly recipes, replicating non-vegetarian favorites. Not all recipes have a 100% whole foods approach, and some include ingredients like "veggie dogs" or "veggie meats." The recipes range from beverages and breakfasts to snacks and entrees. All of the recipes include nutritional information, even the desserts. The book also has a very well organized index that makes it easy to pick up and find a piece of useful information. Raising Vegetarian Children ends with a large resource guide and bibliography, so those who want to dig deeper also know where to go.-- Reviewed by Amy O'Neill Houck
