Reviews
"New moms deserve love, too! This "global baby food" cookbook is a fun option for moms who recently delivered (or who are almost at their due date)."--The Pioneer Woman "The recipes Saini provides for parents in her book are anything but bland."--The Princeton Sun
"...[Around the World in 80 Purees] is just the thing if you would like to vary your baby's diet.... The great thing about these baby foods is that most of them (at least the ones I perused through) do not include "crazy" ingredients that you've never heard of or are hard to come by. For the most part, they all contain ingredients that you are familiar with, but maybe had never thought to put them together in such a way, especially for babies."-Mixed Bag Mama "[Around the World in 80 Purees] delivers a wide variety of purees that will captivate your baby's palate and encourage future exploration in the world of solid food."--Library Journal "This lovely book is an inspirational corrective to the common wisdom that babies' first foods should be bland and that young kids are picky eaters. Instead, this fascinating global exploration of baby food shows us that any infant can become an open, adventurous eater and embark on a lifelong and rewarding culinary journey. (Bonus: these recipes are delicious enough for parents too.)" -Christine Gross-Loh, bestselling author of The Path: What Chinese Philosophers Can Teach Us About the Good Life and Parenting without Borders
"Leena Saini will have your little one turning into a 'foodie in a onesie, ' and maybe you as well (though maybe not the onesie part). Her global approach to homemade baby food is well researched and full of flavorful recipes from every continent. . . .Around the World in 80 Purees is a cookbook I highly recommend."--Bookworlder
