This book has many basic recipes plus some imaginative ones I look forward to trying. The recipes are divided by age which is great. I don't know if I can keep my commitment to only feeding my baby homemade baby food but this certainly leaves me no excuses when it comes to the amount of recipes.

I am an overwhelmed new first time mom and this book has helped me overcome some of my concerns about cooking and what to feed my baby. It's simple and practical in it's recipes. Good for first time moms that get lots of advice from many well intended people...

This is a very good book if you have never prepared fresh food for your baby or toddler and want to venture beyond jarred foods. Some of the recipes are kind of no-brainers, and I wondered why they were even included at all. But overall, a great beginner book if you are looking for some simple things to prepare.

A Good Book for Beginners

I bought this book when my twins first started eating solids, and it is my favorite so far. Some cook books for baby food include complex recipes that seem like they will take hours. The recipes in this book, however, are very simple, so that cooking my babies' food was no longer intimidating at all. It also includes a lot of recipes that seem simple but that I never would have thought of on my own. Pureed chicken and applesauce, for example, has become a staple for my babies. The only reason I didn't give it 5 stars is that a couple of the recipes for teething biscuits did not work out at all. Overall, though, a great book.
