"Passing up the preachy, and going for a hefty serving of helpful information, Dana Meachen Rau has written manuals for teens considering making a change in their daily diets. Detailed diets address the nutritional concerns people have giving up animal products. She also discusses the importance of not burdening one's family with different dietary choices and offers helpful suggestions like doing grocery shopping or making parts of the planned meal. The books contain insets and tables that offer simple alternatives to meat and non-organic foods, a wide variety of organic, meatless, or vegan recipes, and helpful statistics. All books include metric conversion tables for easier cooking. The series is a great addition to any middle or high school library. Recommended."
