Nutrition expert Natalie Savona follows up the success of her book Wonderfoods with Wonderfoods for Kids, a creative guide to 65 nutritional, fun foods that can help improve the way children eat, feel and behave. Parents can search by need: energy levels, healthy digestion, food allergies, mood fluctuations, skin problems, building immunity and growth.
What are wonderfoods? They are wonderful, nutrient-rich foods such as nectarines and sunflower seeds, cucumbers, eggs, turkey and honey that probably already reside in your kitchen.
"The foods featured in this book are more than enough for delicious, varied meals that will make for a happy, healthy child with broad food tastes," Natalie Savona writes in Wonderfoods for Kids.
Many of the 130 inventive recipes have funny names that will get a child excited to eat healthy - squish squash, Japanese orange dragons, magic bananas and sticky chicken are just a few.
Wonderfoods for Kids isn't just for kids - it's for health-conscious parents, child nutritionists and caregivers looking to help the kids in their lives eat right. There's a helpful reference called Wonderfoods Week in the back of the book, which suggests recipes for every meal of the day, and another section on packing wonderfoods-infused lunches.
