I have a fussy 3 year old who has been so ever since weaning, so I am well versed in techniques for getting children to eat and there isn't much new for me in this book. What was very encouraging was the quotes from other parents talking about their fussy children. I found it heartening to know I wasn't alone and hearing their words about what works and what doesn't for their fussy children was helpful. It can feel very isolating when your child doesn't eat what is put in front of them, especially when all your friend's children do!
