Book Description
Editorial Reviews
Amazon.com Review
For many people, vegetarianism is a moral choice, rather than one determined by the pursuit of health. Either way, one of the perils of vegetarianism is that today's children live in a hamburger and hot dog world. This book presents the vegetarian life from conception forward: how a pregnant woman can get enough of the proper nutrients, how children can be raised beeflessly, how to argue against those who try to steer you back to the ways of animal flesh, how to cook food that won't make your family secretly yearn for Big Macs. Those parents who aren't already committed to vegetarianism won't find particularly compelling arguments to do so here, but for those who are, this is an indispensable guide.

2.0 out of 5 stars
dissapointing,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Vegetarian Child (Paperback)
I was looking for more information on healthy nutrition for vegetatarian children. This book offers information on attitudes toward vegetairan families and a few nice recipes, but no basic nutrition information. If you're looking for a book to comiserate with your woes of people misunderstanding your wish to raise your child as a vegetarian, then this is the book for you. If you wish to learn about vegetarian nutrition for children, then try Sharon Yntema's books - they are great !

A comprehensive guide to raising the vegetarian child.,

This review is from: The Vegetarian Child (Paperback)
The author put this book in an easy-to-read question and answer format. It covers all ages and a wide variety of subjects, from how to deal with unsupportive families to nutrition for the young bodybuilder. There is an excellent recipe section at the end. It's a fun read that offers sound advice and support for the parents of vegetarian children.

2.0 out of 5 stars
disappointing,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Vegetarian Child (Paperback)
I expected more information on vegetarian nutrition & recipes. Though this book presents some of the social obstacles of a living as a vegetarian with children, it offers little in the way of solutions to obstacles - just "arguments" for "defending" vegetarianism. If you wish to argue & defend, you should read this book. Education & information about sound vegetarian nutrition and reasons for living a peaceful vegetarian lifestyle are much better to help justify choices than the information that this book offers.
