I want to recommend one of the best books I have ever read in my life! Sorry, it is not fiction, it is the blood honest truth.
Disease - Proof Your Child
Feeding Kids Right
Feeding Kids Right
by Joel Fuhrman, M.D.
Do you know those baby books/brochures they give you for free at the hospital after you had a baby? I believe that they should give EVERY parent THIS book!
Buy it or get it at your local library.
One of my favorite information in this book is probably how he explains why it is so beneficial to breast feed your child til the age of 2. Gaps in the digestive tract of a baby are designed to absorb the Immunoglobulins in mother's milk, a Babies Immune System is still underdeveloped and immature until the age of 2, the same age as those gaps in the intestine start to close. Nature designed it this way!
He even has kids tested recipes in the back of the book, so keep it in your kitchen for easy access.
The book reads pretty easy, a lot of information to absorb, but once you start you can not stop.
To Real Food for your Family! (-:

Update December 2013: The book is now also available digital:
