This month, we have two books to review:

First, in THE MOMS' GUIDE TO MEAL MAKEOVERS, high-profile dietitians Janice Bissex and Liz Weiss tackle every mother's daunting task of bringing nutritious, quality food to the table in a manageable, realistic, and time-pressed manner. In their book, they offer realistic guidelines designed to give families a healthy meal makeover. The duo's 5-Step Meal Makeover Plan begins with new advice on how to market good nutrition to kids, establish food rules, and make life easier in the kitchen. Their Best of the Bunch Chapter reveals which brands of kid convenience foods—hot dogs, frozen pizza, and more—are the best- tasting and most nutritious ones out there. They follow up with tips for stocking a healthy pantry, and then serve up 120 recipes for family favorites such as Fast-As-Boxed Macaroni and Cheese, Squishy Squash Lasagna, Cheesy Broccoli Soup, Sweet Potato Fries, and Chocolate Pudding with Toppers. All come complete with nutrition information and have been made over to be faster and more nutritious than the originals. Complete with 120 recipes and a fun and friendly 5-Step Meal Makeover Plan, this is one guide that no modern family should be without. http://mealmakeovermoms.com

Then, the battle of the sexes heats up with a nitty-gritty book that uses no-holds-barred humor to perfectly display the enigmatic world of male/female differences. . From channel surfing to toilet seats to shopping and communications, WHY MEN DON'T HAVE A CLUE AND WOMEN ALWAYS NEED SHOES is the perfect solution to understanding the opposite sex. Using new findings on the brain, studies of social changes, evolutionary biology, and psychology, Barbara and Allan Pease highlight the differences in the way men and women think and act, examining topics of perennial interest to both sexes.
