Ruth Yaron cares deeply about what your baby is eating--so much so that her bestselling Super Baby Food is encyclopedic in both scope and size. Ounce for hefty ounce, this manual/cookbook/reference guide is worth its weight in formula, packed as it is with detailed information on homemade baby food, nutritional data, feeding schedules, cooking techniques, recipes, and other invaluable feeding tips. Yaron builds her compelling argument for making baby food at home on the simple premise that food profoundly impacts health, especially when an infant's developing digestive tract is involved. Parents will learn why babies should start out on rice porridge, bananas, avocados, and sweet potatoes before advancing to more difficult-to-digest foods such as wheat cereals and milk products. While Yaron's passionate stance and vegetarian bias may turn off some parents, others will be grateful for her strict attention to potentially harmful additives and chemicals. No matter what their eating philosophy, most parents will appreciate the economy and surprising ease of making baby food at home. This is not gourmet cooking; all you have to do is learn how to boil water and operate a blender. For veggies, simply steam some vegetable chunks and blend. For baby porridge, just grind some whole grains in a blender and boil. It's that simple. And when you're feeding your baby, simple is best. --Sumi Hahn

- Good reference; Covers both too much and too little
My baby is not a good eater. He is growing, but not at what my ped believes is a healthy curve. I'm therefore on the lookout for a good guide on how to feed my little boy. This book is generally very good. Great advice on starter foods, keeping food hygenic and what you can expect a baby to eat at different stages. However, my baby eats FAR LESS than the recommended amounts, particularly formula (the book says he should have a minimum of a certain # of ounces; my baby eats half that amount). There are not set amounts per my ped, so this can be a bit misleading. Another "beef" I have about this book (pun intended!) is that the author is very opinionated on eating a vegetarian diet. While I respect her views, I need a more comprehensive book that is not so opinionated since I would like to feed my little boy meat (especially given his weight issues; I can't afford to carve out an entire food group!).

- Wonderful resource
I am a 1st time mom and found this book so informative. It's very detailed and provides great tips. The month by month break down of what to feed your baby, when to introduce foods and how is wonderful. My sister recommended it to me and I am now recommending it to my friends. :) You won't be disappointed in this book- unless you are 100% into feeding your baby food in jars perhaps. The author is into breastfeeding and then later on more into making your own food but provides tips for jar-fed babies as well.

- Good, But Just Too Much

This is a great book to find advice about serving size and eating schedules and what foods to feed at what age. This can be an overwhelming book, but if you just take the parts of the book that you need when you need them, it's very helpful and helps to save ALOT of money.

I do not follow everything, but I do what I feel is best for my baby with this and other books as a reference. As a reference, it is wonderful.

- I LOVE THIS BOOK!
I love this book, it answers all my questions. All I do is ask my pediatrition and she ALWAYS gives me the Okay. Not to mention that I feel so good giving my children the best of the best. I have even started growing my own ORGANIC VEGETABLE garden with the help of my entire family. THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOOO much Ruth, your advice and guidance is unparalleled.
