HEALTHY CHILD, HEALTHY WORLD: Creating A Cleaner, Greener, Safer Home

THIS IS A MUST HAVE BOOK FOR PARENTS AND GRANDPARENTS!

The book is filled cover to cover with wonderful, easy ideas for making your home safer and greener. Although based on solid scientific principles, the book reads like a how-to manual any of us can understand.

The philosophy Christopher Gavigan puts forth makes sense. When I spoke with him he said "No one can do everything, but everyone can do something to improve the safety of their home for their children." You will be surprised at some of the down-to-earth suggestions. There are recipes for healthy snacks, ideas for food shopping, non-chemical cleaners and soaps plus a 27-page Resources section.

The HEALTHY CHILD HEALTHY WORLD organization has been around for 18 years and is endorsed by celebrities like Gwyneth Paltrow, Tom Hanks, Brooke Shields, Vanessa Williams, Sheryl Crow and Michelle Obama to name a few. I like the philosophy and I really like this book. I recommend it as a "must have" if you have children. You might consider giving it as a gift to any grandparent. What do you think?
