Praise
“Pediatricians Porto and DiMaggio offer a systematically organized, practical, and up-to-date guide to baby feeding from birth until toddlerhood. Their work will leave parents feeling informed but not overwhelmed. […] Parents will find the chapters useful to read through as their children reach each stage, and well enough organized to use as a reference when particular concerns come up.”
—Publishers Weekly
“Dina and Anthony’s book is a goldmine, chock-full of up-to-date information and clear answers to virtually any feeding question a mom or dad could have.”
—Jenna Helwig, Food Editor, Parents magazine, and author of Real Baby Food
“The Pediatrician’s Guide To Feeding Babies and Toddlers is one of the best and most complete manuals for parents and Pediatricians alike. It is written so that a non-medical reader can clearly understand it and yet the contents are so complete that it should be mandatory reading for every Pediatric Resident. What I loved best about the book were the authors’ personal anecdotes and the fun recipes sure to please every age group. I highly recommend this book and will now have a go to book to recommend to my patients.”
—Amy R DeFelice, MD, Pediatric Gastroenterologist, Columbia University, Director, Nutrition Support Services Associate Professor of Pediatrics
