Summary:

"We wrote this book to be both informative and practical. In this first part, you’ll learn about children’s restrictive eating : what it is, what research tells us about why it happens and the course it takes, and the ways it affects children and families. This knowledge will deepen your understanding of what your child is going through. It will also prepare you for working on the picky eating and helping your child to overcome it. In the second part, you’ll move from understanding to action, with a clear, step-by-step plan you can follow to help your child become more flexible and comfortable around food"-- Provided by publisher.
