Definitely worth a mention is the release today of Healthy Child Healthy World by Christopher Gavigan, the CEO of Healthy Child Healthy World, a national non-profit dedicated to protecting the health and well-being of children and families through cleaner, greener, and safer lifestyle changes.

I'm only part way through the book but it's already making me change the way my family lives. Each year the number of children with autism, ADD, allergies and other ailments only seems to grow. As much research points towards environmental causes, organizations like Healthy Child Healthy World are taking steps to increase awareness and teach parents today how to live safely and eco-friendly. From what food you eat to what cleaning supplies you use, the book gives a parent ideas to improve the lives of their family. It's definitely worth a read by any parent - and it's endorsed by tons of celebrities such as Gwyneth Paltrow, Meryl Streep and Tom Hanks, although I find the endorsement by Dr. Harvey Karp (Happiest Baby/Toddler on the Block) even more impressive.

It's now for sale on Amazon for $17.13 (retail 25.95) and ships for free when you purchase $25 worth of eligible items. It's also timely with Earth Day and Week coming up next week - check it out.
