Consumer advocate Jeanette Pavini includes information for making smart choices and applying green principles to a whole new universe of products from zero-VOC paints for the nursery, to pure and gentle lotions for baby’s delicate skin, to the eco-friendly diapers now in the marketplace, as well as specific recommendations for hundreds of other products.

5 out of 5 stars Thorough and Trustworthy   November 1, 2007

This book is proving itself to be a thorough and trustworthy reference. I'm finding that each time there's a new and worrisome problem in the news (first it was lead paint on the toys, and now it's toxic plastic in the baby bottles), I can turn to reassuring, authoritative advice in Raising Baby Green. Check out the box on page 132 for help in choosing safe baby bottles (if you don't have the book, you can look it up here on Amazon.) There's a huge amount of information packed into this book, (great index, by the way) and thankfully it's not preachy, just very helpful!

Although I was hoping for more some tips during pregnancy, this is an excellent book for raising your baby green. It has some fantastic tips on everything from painting your room to laundry detergents. Some of these tips are even helpful for you even if you are not expecting a child or work with children.

I highly recommend it.

This book was a gift for a friend who is pregnant with her first child. I heard an interview on NPR's People's Pharmacy and expected the book to great. I was thrilled. It was better than I imagined. My friend loved it too and is excited to apply some of the great advice. I recommend this book to anyone who has children or is thinking of starting a family.

This book is incredibly helpful and I am so grateful to finally have a resource like this. With all of the harmful things in our environment today, it is hard to navigate through it all and know you are doing the very best to raise a healthy child. This book helps me feel empowered. I am giving this book at every baby shower I go to. If you only buy or have time to ready one baby book - this is the one!!!!
