Guest guest Posted December 12, 2008 Report Share Posted December 12, 2008 Hi all, I recently heard a good review of a book for vegetarian teens, about how to cook for themselves and their families, I think it was - and it had a pic on the front of a teen peering into a fridge. Anyone know what book this is - or have a good book suggestion for teens new to vegetarianism? Our teen niece just decided to become a vegetarian, and is not getting support in her home (second time in her life, she went through this when she was about 6-years-old, too, and went back to meat eating back then when she didn't get support in her house). I talked to my sister (her mother) about it, and my sister is convinced that it's too hard to be healthy on a vegetarian diet - as if she's not talking to a vegetarian (me), and not talking to her own sister who is raising a very healthy vegetarian family, and as if I've not done any research on this let alone 20+ years of research as our family and needs have changed, and as if she knows anything of what she's talking about or that her diet is at all healthy just because it includes hoofstock and birds. Oi. Okay, rant over. (knew you guy's understand!) :-) Any good teen book suggestions? :-) I checked the vrg site and amazon, and didn't find the fridge picture on a cover . . . but am not married to that one book, either. Thanks much, in advance! Lorraine Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
