An up-to-date resource to guide parents through the minefield that is weaning! This book leaves the reader in no doubt that giving babies a solid start in life is an investment in their future. It will inspire even the most nervous of caregivers to find joy in sharing food whilst teaching their little ones to be independent and adaptable at mealtimes and beyond.
