I ran across this book and thought I would give it a try to aid in making my kids' lunches.  After several weeks of following the menus provided in this book my kids were eating more healthy and had become interested in grocery shopping each week to get the ingredients for their school lunches.  By following this guide, our family eats much healthier, we buy much less junk at the grocery store, and are eating foods that we had never tried before.
The author is a Registered Dietitan, so you can count on the information in this book being healthy and well prepared.  I would recommend this book to any family with children who want to ensure that their children eat well.  We've all heard that people create their eating habits for life as children.  This book can help any family wishing to correct poor eating habits and ensure that their children eat healthy at school.  Lastly, for families already eating healthy but looking for new eating ideas, this book is a home run!

A wonderful book. Most usuful for any parent looking for great ideas to either attaract children to healthy good food, or for nice-after noon receptions of friends and family.
My young kids demand to take part at preparing the spreads and have a great time making them and eating it all up! So nice to watch them interacting in the kitchen, instead of all the junkfood going around.
Its healthy, easy to make, fits young, adults, and even fancy occasions. There are so many suggestions - you can always find what you are looking for!

until recently i had 1 kid in school (few minutes walk) and 1 at home with a nanny. the nanny would take the warm lunch to school every day.... now my 2nd is at school as well and needed solution for them to get warm lunch.
i ordered 2 of this and its not cheap but reviews are good. i was impressed with the guy who was using it for 10 years!
I've only been using it for 1 week, but i have to tell you - my kids are finishing their food every day!!! like they eat better then the time the nanny was sending food! i'm a bit shocked.
so i think so far its working well, got no other way to judge.

Teaching kids to eat healthy, and enjoy it, can be a daunting task. This book has great information for kids on how to eat healthy without eating boring. Kids like variety and this book offers that. I like the healthy choices that it promotes in a way that kids can follow and understand. I think too many kids don't understand why they need to eat healthy, only that mom or dad say so. This is a great way to make it easy for kids to understand the benefits to them. Great book!

My kids are generally pretty good healthy eaters and this plate makes it even more fun for them.  They're always excited to fill up the section with whatever belongs there. Great gift idea too!

I do love this calendar. I'm a foster parent and most kids come with food issues. My kiddos love being able to see what they will be eating. I b put the times on top so they will remember the eating schedule. It also helps with my meal planning. The only reason I have it a 4 is the marker that came with it I have to scrub it off. Hard. With water. I bought some Expo fine tips and the writing comes off just fine and doesn't stain.

I have twin three-year-old with picky palates but I want them to eat more fruits and veggies. I received an advanced copy of this book and I love it. It offers lots of quick and easy meal options that are still familiar to foods my kids already eat, so they're more willing to try new things! Plus I can eat what they eat instead of making boring nuggets for them and a healthy meal for myself.

must admit, when I first discovered this title, I was extremely apprehensive about a diet book for children, even though my personal experience with the Paleo diet has been great. I was thrilled to discover that the book offers an easy overhaul of the unhealthy and processed foods often found in kids' eating choices. I especially like how the book addresses the challenges of typical kids meals head on - it offers guidance on how to navigate the tricky "school lunch" and spontaneous snack times. The book is also broken down into easy to follow steps and includes a menu plan to help prepare meals based on natural proteins, fruits and vegetables. I feel good about introducing my child to the recipes and meal strategies found in the book, now that I know it is truly a healthy lifestyle change, not just a diet

Why didn't I think of this?  A great, fun way to get the kids to eat new and different foods, and not all the same food at once.  The plate is very well made, thick and sturdy.  I'm sure it will last a long time.  The colors and pictures are perfect.  I'm guessing it would hold enough food for breakfast and lunch for kids up to 6 or 7.  Probably not enough space to fill up an older child's appetite but definitely could still be used for older children along with other plates for more food.  I'm pretty sure the kids are going to want to only use this plate from now on. It's fun to let them guess what is under the "Surprise" Finish. I liked it so much I bought 3 more for all the grandkids, and told my daughter to buy some to give as birthday gifts (gender neutral) for her daughter's friends.  Great Product!

Even You Can Be Healthy is loaded with great information from "stocking your kitchen, to "tools" and "menu's".  The recipes are easy to understand,and preparation time is quick.  This is a great book to teach kids about healthy nutrition and help build healthy habits.  Well done Ann!

I've been trying to get my family to eat healthier and to also do some portion control for myself. This cookbook has been perfect! It has great tasting recipes - love their summer salad and I appreciate how it tells you exactly how much is a 100 calorie portion. They also have helpful tips throughout the cookbook that are actually helpful. I've cooked several recipes together with my 7 year old and our whole family has enjoyed it so much!

Wow, this book is amazing.  As a busy mom, this book gives me some creative, fun ways to help change bad eating habits. It is not only for kids, but adults can benefit greatly by changing our food choices and improving our overall health.  I especially liked the recipes.  They are simple, easy recipes to follow and dishes you can make with your kids and enjoy regularly. I would recommend this book for any family looking to make healthy eating habits an important part of their day.
