Alleluia! A book that aims to have babies and toddlers eating 'grown-up' food. In today's culture of kiddy menus, and food marketed purely at children, we need a lot more of this kind of book. And the recipes are lovely. The healthy banana cakes get rave reviews all around, even when made by me!

An excellent guide for anyone feeding a child old enough to have sense of independence, but young enough to have difficulty with the etiquette of cutlery! The basic information sections should help compile a storecupboard of easily obtainable and useful fallback ingredients, and the recipes are easy to follow, and often quick to make. The results have the approval of my 20 month old child!! The aim is to provide good, nutritious and non-faddy meals which are easily (and not too messily) eaten without use of cutlery - although we have progressed, helped by the dips section of this book, to more use of a spoon, via vbegatble and fruit finger and mini pittas. The author wanted to make mealtimes fun and enjoyable, instead of a battleground, and I think succeeds. Particular highpoints - mini muffins (as popular with grown up family as small people), fishcakes and homemade ketchup and guacamole. My only criticism, if I had to make one, is that the use of cartoon style drawings may be more attractive to the children eating the food than adults preparing it, and I would have like to see proper pictures of the intended end results - but frankly, this is being picky in the extreme with a book I have been very well pleased with and have made much use of! I would happily recommend this to any parent who likes to know what goes into their child's food, and wants to be confident that the food will literally go down well, but doesn't want to spend hours scouring shops for exotic and hard to find ingredients, or hours preparing and cooking meals. The guidance on storage and freezing is exceptionally clear and concise, and the nutritional information extends to a short specific note on every dish included, as well as general comment. A small but invaluable guide!

My 20 month old son is very choosy about what he eats, but loves savoury and sweet biscuits and snacks (much to my horror). As well as the huge selection of recipes in this book, there are also recipes for biscuits, snacks and treats so at least I know he's not eating processed junk. Each recipe gives details of the 'nutritional value' in plain English. I'm writing this review today as I'm in Amazon to order a copy for a girlfriend having similar eating problems with her 13 month old girl.

I really don't know what I would have done without this book. Weaning my great-nephew (parents are vegetarian) was a challenge until his mum recommended this. Read more

Fab book
This is a fab book. I bought it when my son decided he must feed himself. Loads of great recipes like mini quiches and cheese straws. I always recommend it.

cooking instructions aren't always very good
Although there are a lot of good ideas in this book, I have wasted so much food and time making things (for example the potato faces) that have just ended up being a pile of mush... Read more

8.5 month old loves the food!
My daughter hates store-bought zwieback (tastes like nothing) and jars of baby puree. I bought this book on a whim and made the rusks and tofu burgers the first day. Read more

Its ok
This book is more suitable for toddlers than babies. Provides some good ideas but not all recipes are healthy enough for babies under 1.
