The producer of An Inconvenient Truth, Laurie
David's new mission is to help America's overwhelmed
families sit down to a Family Dinner, and she provides all
the reasons, recipes and fun tools to do so. Laurie
David speaks from her own experience confronting the
challenges of raising two teenage girls. Today's parents
have lots to deal with and technology is making their job
harder than ever. Research has proven that everything we
worry about as parents--from drugs to alcohol, promiscuity,
to obesity, academic achievement and just good old
nutrition--can all be improved by the simple act of eating
and talking together around the table. Laurie has
written a practical, inspirational, fun (and, of course,
green) guide to the most important hour in any parent's day.
Chock-full chapters include: Over seventy-five kid approved
fantastic recipes; tips on teaching green values;
conversation starters; games to play to help even the shyest
family member become engaged; ways to express gratitude; the
family dinner after divorce (hint: keep eating together) and
much more. Filled with moving memories and advice from the
country's experts and teachers, this book will get everyone
away from electronic screens and back to the dinner table.
