 Excellent Resource Material for New Parents.... June 24, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
I found this book very helpful... very readable, and I've referred back to it a few times. I didn't purchase it like it was.... the be-all end-all this is what we need to do... book. I've taken some of her ideas and suggestions to heart (in fact the natural ear ache remedy works) and those that don't fit w/what we can do right now... we'll work our way towards them (or not). I didn't feel as though she were lecturing, but I also agree w/quite a lot of her views, particularly w/regard to vaccines and the BPA and Phthalates in plastic which I go to great pains to avoid... altho i'm not a fanatic about it...you can only do what you can DO and that's really what I got from the book. It's better to do what you can... and be aware!
I'd also recommend Healthy Child Healthy World and The Vaccine Book, I've found them all to be great resources as a new Mom.

Deirdre does an excellent job outlining positive ways to remove toxins in your child's enviornment. All the resources for what you need is in one place!
This book now is part of every baby shower gift and should be a way of life. Its practical and can help you take the necessary steps to improving your childs enviornment and health.
 I'm a "tree-hugger" but I hated this book. June 11, 2008

This book is horrible. It's so unrealistic and condescending. Don't bother with this one!
 This book lost it's credibility when the author questioned breastfeeding's benefits. June 5, 2008
10 out of 11 found this review helpful
I really wanted to like this book. I try my best to raise my chilren "green". To me breastfeeding and being green go hand in hand. Breastmilk is by far superior to infant formulas. To even think that the toxins that are found in breastmilk outweigh the benefits of breastfeeding for both mother and child are laughable. Breastfeeding rates here in the U.S. are already low, I am sad to think that new mothers who read this book might be influenced by it's information and advertisements of organic infant formulas.
Must-read for new mothers May 27, 2008

This is an easy-to-read reference for new mothers and mothers-to-be.
(Even grandmothers) I have bought 5 already as an addition to baby gifts with good responses from the recipients. Mrs. Imus provides the most recent research studies to support her advice as well as many examples of products, not just her own, to use that do not contain toxins. The book contains many suggestions on how to instill healthy habits in your children in their earliest years.
