As you know I'm already a fan of Sarah Fragoso's blog, "Everyday Paleo" and her book of the same title. She's a talented trainer, writer, wife, and probably most importantly, an amazing mom. Her first cookbook shared favorite paleo family recipes, a unique workout system for those new to workouts and training, and a great introduction to the paleo diet for parents and kids alike.
This book however, is just for kids. (Well, I say that, but I thoroughly enjoyed reading it myself!) In this book little Jimmy is used to eating packaged, sugary, and very processed foods. His parents have discovered a more healthy way to eat: all natural fruits and vegetables, meats, chicken, fish, nuts, and even baked goods made with almond flour. But Jimmy is reluctant and doesn't want to eat the new healthy foods his mom and dad want him to try. Enter Paleo Pals, some really cool super-heros that take Jimmy on a fantastic food adventure to show him how and why it's important to eat healthy, whole, and natural foods. The end of the book shares really fun paleo recipes that kids can make with a little help from their parents.
Overall this book is just plain FUN! Whether you're on a gluten free diet, the paleo diet, or a primal plan, or just want to incorporate healthier, whole foods into your everyday life, this is a great book to share with kids on why it's important. The pictures are super cute and colorful. The book is really fun to read and (while I don't have children) I think the characters can really relate to kids and their feelings.
I definitely recommend adding Sarah's newest book to your children's library. It would also be a great book to donate for the waiting room at your local doctor's office or even your local library. Have you read it? I'd love to know what you think of it!
