It also includes easy recipes to help make the transition as trouble-free (and tasty) as possible. And yes, you can still go out to dinner! Yes, you can still go to Grandma’s house for Thanksgiving! This book tells you how. Most importantly, this book shows you how to support your child’s transition to a vegetarian diet in a way that is harmonious, and maybe even fun.
