Review
Detailed yet easy to understand...filled with practical suggestions. -- Dr. Todd Cartmell, Author of "Respectful Kids"

Written in an easy-to-read format that will help both families and doctors to raise fit, healthy, energetic children. -- Peter Niemen, M.D. Pediatrician and CoFounder of the Pediatric Obesity Clinic

Product Description
Obesity is affecting our children at an alarming rate. Today's high-calorie menus and low-effort lifestyles put kids at risk and can lead to negative health and social consequences. Society tends to look for a quick fix, but gimmicks don't work! Dr. Robert Andersen, an award-winning pediatrician and experienced dad, has a common-sense, down-to-earth plan that does.

5.0 out of 5 stars Informative and Simply put..., March 8, 2007
Dr. Andersen has made it quite simple for parents, discussing the importance of nutrition and exercise in raising healthy children. He gets to the bottom line on the subject and delivers what it is we all need to know in a way that is easy to read and relate to. It is definitely worth it to read this book if you are serious about raising healthy kids!

This book is excellent. Dr. Andersen is my daughter's doctor, and the book is great. It is very helpful. I recommend it to anyone raising children right now.
