Advance Praise for
The No-Cry Picky Eater Solution

In The No-Cry Picky Eater Solution Elizabeth Pantley provides a whole new way of looking at the age-old problem of what to do when your childs food choices arent in line with your values. Myths are dispelled by sound, practical, and gentle advice that can work for any family. Old-fashioned thoughts about food battles are challenged, and the solutions are simple and dont involve you becoming a short-order cook. The book was so good, I finished it in one sitting! It was just what I needed for help with my own daughter.
