The first comprehensive guide to help environmentally conscious parents make healthy product and lifestyle choices
Parents have become more and more conscious of how important it is to preserve the planet for their children-and out of this consciousness, the green baby movement was born. This is the first definitive, up-to-date guide for parents on how to raise happy babies "green," that is, in a manner that is healthy for them and also for the earth. Dr. Alan Greene, a leading voice of the green baby movement, advises on healthy choices during pregnancy and childbirth, feeding babies only the best food available, and using medicines safely. Consumer product expert Jeanette Pavini helps parents make smart choices on linens and diapers, bedding, furniture, plants, cribs, toys, carriers, household cleaners, lotions and creams, and dozens of other products. This handy paperback is organized so that parents can turn to the stage of development and specific concerns they're facing, right down to the rooms of the home where the baby will dwell. From the womb to the delivery room and on to the nursery, kitchen, bathroom, linen closet, indoor plants and outdoor gardens, and beyond, the expert authors provide specific product choices and recommendations in an easy-to-use package that features innovative text, boxes, tips, consumer product ratings, and handsome illustrations.

Review
Child safety expert Drago shows parents how to eliminate hazards in the home, room by room. She also discusses the perils of daily activities: eating, sleeping, getting dressed, playing, and traveling. Illustrations, checklists, and charts make this user-friendly.
Greene, a Stanford pediatrician and author of the popular web site drgreene.com, teams up with a consumer health reporter and an author of parenting books to give parents ecofriendly options for pregnancy, birth, and parenting. Everything from choosing the best diapers to selecting nontoxic nursery paint and organic baby food is offered along with commonsense advice about diaper rash and food allergies. These are excellent companions to more traditional parenting books by the likes of T. Berry Brazelton. (Library Journal, February 1, 2008)In this second of only two recently published books on environmentally friendly child rearing—the other being Kimberly Rider’s Organic Baby: Simple Steps for Healthy Living—pediatrician Greene (Stanford Univ. Sch. of Medicine) provides an exemplary information and reference resource for parents concerned with doing their part to raise a healthy child in an ecoconscious manner. Organized by developmental stages, the text features Greene advising on what to feed the baby and how to administer medicine safely; Jeanette Pavini, a consumer watch reporter for CBS Eyewitness News in San Francisco, recommends how to shop responsibly for diapers, bedding, cribs, toys, etc. While the book is specifically geared toward new parents, its well-cited data about environmental hazards, coupled with the practical tips for green living, are suitable for anyone wanting to learn more about individual efforts to increase environmental sustainability. A solid niche filler on green parenting; recommended for all public libraries.
—Susan E. Thomas, Indiana Univ. Lib., South Bend (Library Journal, October 23, 2007)Pediatrician Greene, a leading figure in the green baby movement, enthusiastically discusses everything from what to take with you to the delivery room to questions to ask hospitals/birth centers, about how green they are. "Buying Green" text boxes give contact info for recommended retailers or products of all types, useful for comparison shopping. (LJ Xpress Review, 10/16/07)"Pediatrician Greene's informative guide for raising children in the most environmentally friendly way possible makes for some fascinating (and surprising) reading. From pregnancy and childbirth to nursery design and gardening, Greene covers hundreds of questions and situations new parents will face and provides a nonstop flow of sensible answers. His evenhanded tone makes this an excellent choice for audiences as varied as committed vegans to those who are considering purchasing organic milk. There is no pressure to "convert," and readers will find plenty of options for how little or much they want to commit to a new lifestyle. The book's layout is particularly impressive, with boxed comments from other parents, lists of recommended products and food, and numerous links to helpful sites. From diapers to food allergies, Greene has a thoughtful, nonbiased response to nearly every question a new parent could have. He gives his own opinions, but always states as much, and never! derides the choices of others. An excellent choice for those who don't know where to begin when it comes to environmental parenting."
