She never passes judgment on anyone's infant feeding goals, and this book perfectly captures that essence. The chapters are organized clearly so that anyone can pick up the book and glean valuable insight. The illustrations are inclusive, and the tone of the book is about empowerment and education! Chrisie is exactly the person you want to learn this stuff from. Can't recommend this book highly enough." --Sarah Siebold, Lactation Consultant
