A little gem.
We own many of Rosemary Gladstar's books and have never been disappointed. This is an excellent recourse to have, full of easy to understand and make recipes. Yes, it's a small book, however I appreciate one book dedicated to children so I don't have to flip through larger books, and when I'm out and about, this one almost always comes with me in case I have a few spare moments to read. It is packed with good information, easy enough for a beginner to follow and definitely worth your while to read cover to cover a few times! It's becoming more and more crucial for man to get back to his roots and increase our health by doing what we can to strengthen our immune system and avoid medication whenever possible and this is especially true for the children of this generation.

Must have for parents
I had Rosemary Gladstar’s women’s health book and loved it so much I got the book for children too. As a new parent it helps me know what to do when kids aren’t feeling well. So far the advice has been on point.

Good Basic Little Book on Natural Healing for Children
This is a basic but good book for herbal remedies for children. This should be your introduction to natural healing for Children. It should be in everyone's library, along with other books. It is a very small book so the value, to me, was not as good as I had hoped. Still, I am glad I bought it.

Very useful!!
I really am super impressed by this book. It gives you the information of the parts used, benefits, and suggested uses. It teaches you how to do the dosage and how to make them into oils, ointments, tinctures,and etc.. it also gives you resources of where to buy the herbs The index page is well organized you can look it up by name of the herb or by the pain. Only thing is there no color pics but I'm not to worry about it.

Useful book
As a mother/person who always finds the natural way to heal before using modern medicine, this book is a blessing. There are tinctures, teas, & even a recipe for an all natural baby powder. I wish I had this for my 1st born. Buy! Buy! Buy!

Si, pero no.
Todo muy bien pero cuando tengo que ir a cosechar el olmo etnicamente se me complica... Se entendió el sarcasmo o pongo otro ejemplo? El "librito" (si, eso es, no llega a libro), esta muy bien, es información y eso es valioso, solo hay que recordar que las hierbas que se deben utilizar tienen que ser endémicas, si por tu zona no crece "trebol rojo" quiere decir que no es para ti.
