“This book provides a brief background on BLW, what to expect, and information to back up the methodology. It is straightforward and to the point, helping eliminate mealtime battles while allowing the child to discover their food, learn to self regulate when they are full, and have a healthy relationship with food. The recipes are surprisingly simple and packed with nutrients.”—Cass Y.

A must-buy for anyone with littles! I was introduced to BLW by one of the co-authors, Ellen, for our 2nd child, and it has truly been one of the best decisions we’ve made! This cookbook is not only full of research-based, helpful tips about BLW, but also contains recipes categorized by age that are super easy to make!”—Kelli G.
