Best Lunch Box Ever
is a terrific gift to anyone who has to pack a lunch for a kid, and wants that lunch to be healthful—and eaten. Katie Morford has dozens of interesting and sometimes surprising suggestions for easy, delicious, and nutritious lunch items that kids will enjoy—if parents don't get to them first. I wish I'd had this book when my kids were in school.”
