Great Ways to Connect with Your Kids, One Meal at a Time
Laurie David, Kirstin Uhrenholdt

Someone recently asked me about my top 10 favorite books, and this is one of them -- a cookbook! I have such zeal for this book by environmentalist, author, and producer Laurie David that the thought of describing it feels overwhelming. Really, this is a must-have book for any family. It's that important because family meals have more to do with your child's self-esteem, confidence, and other positive outcomes than do income levels, after-school activities, family structure, or regular attendance at church.

Laurie's book ensures mealtime success. She and Kirstin Uhrenholdt offer tips, tools, and recipes, from quick week-day meals and food for sick days and families dealing with divorce to games, conversation starters, rituals that will help your family dinners be the highlight of your day, and tips for using leftovers.

Because of Laurie's connections, there are contributions from Bette Midler, Sheryl Crow, Maya Angelou, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr., and others. There's a section of recipes kids can make themselves as well as plenty of recipes for vegetarians. We've offered family dinner books before, but none have come close to this one. With it, you and your family will be nourished in every way! It's a perfect gift for everyone from new parents to grandparents.
