The missing element is often the lack of real food that sustains and cultivates the good health they entered the world with.That's the secret ingredient in this masterful new guide by Carol D'Anca, a passionate and authoritative nutrition thought-leader, joined by Dr. Barbara Deal, a forward-thinking pediatric cardiologist, along with expertise from a chef of distinction, Raffaella Florio, who applies old world wisdom to show us how to thrive in the 21st century.Stephen Devries, MD Preventive Cardiologist Executive Director, nonprofit Gaples Institute Associate Professor, Northwestern UniversityThis little book offers readers an easy to follow scientific explanation of the link between food sources, nutrition, and health along with simple recipes for tasty and nutritious dishes for infants and toddlers.What sets the book apart, though, is its call to return to a simpler time, to our immigrant forebearers, specifically to "Nonna," the iconic Italian American grandmother, whose ability to create delicious meals from the simple ingredients she had at hand has been praised by culinary luminaries such as Jamie Oliver. Readers will enjoy both reading about the importance of eating well and the recipes themselves, which though geared to children are equally appealing to more mature palates!Carla A.
