Summary

Broccoli Boot Camp is a comprehensive guide for parents of children who are selective or picky eaters, and can be used with children with or without special needs (e.g, autism or Down syndrome). It presents commonsense behavioral interventions to successfully expand children's diet variety and preferences for healthy foods.
 
The book starts with the simple premise that when children are encouraged to taste and consume tiny portions of new foods, repeatedly and with lessening resistance, they learn to accept and enjoy the foods as part of their regular diets. Real-life, compelling case studies and abundant research findings support the authors' advice on how to overcome a child's selective eating. It describes ways to increase compliance, factors to consider when choosing an intervention, and strategies to shape behavior.
 
Finally, five intervention plans are presented with step-by-step procedures, modifications, and tips on maximizing success. Parents can choose the intervention which works best for their family's circumstances. The book also contains forms to track data, incentives, and meals, and a behavior contract to use with older children. Broccoli Boot Camp gives parents the tools they need to promote healthy eating for their child as well as improve the family mealtime experience!
 
This second edition includes updated references, two new interventions plans, and an expanded discussion of nutrient deficiencies along with recommendations for preventing and treating them. Other updates include clarifications on modeling. There is also a guide for clinicians at the end of the book.
Available since: 10/01/2024.
Print length: 314 pages.

    This Part Is Silent - A Life...

    A searing essay collection that explores displacement and loss, creativity and change, institutional power and progress. 
     
     
     
    Born in Korea, raised in the American South, and trying her best to survive British academia, SJ Kim probes her experiences as a writer, a scholar, and a daughter to confront the silences she finds in the world. With curiosity and sensitivity, she writes letters to the institutions that simultaneously support and fail her, intimate accounts of immigration, and interrogations of rising anti-Black and anti-Asian racism. She considers the silences between generations—especially within the Asian diaspora in the West—as she finds her way back to her own family during the pandemic lockdown. 
     
     
     
    Embracing the possibilities and impossibilities of language, Kim rejoices in the similes of Korean, her mother tongue, and draws inspiration from K-dramas and writers across cultures who sustain her. As borders close in and nations enter lockdown, the journey that Kim traces is fraught—and at once illuminates that the act of remaining present has its own power, allowing boundless hope.

    The Sun Engine is a sweeping journey through the story of light, life, and cosmic creation. From the fiery death of ancient stars to the birth of our Sun, this audiobook explores how solar energy has shaped every stage of existence—from the formation of planets to the spark of life on Earth. 
    Tracing the Sun’s influence through science, history, and spirituality, the narrative reveals how solar power has fueled ecosystems, inspired myth and religion, ignited industry through fossil fuels, and now returns as a guiding force for modern renewable energy. 
    Beyond its physical presence, The Sun Engine ventures into the profound connection between sunlight and human consciousness, while contemplating the Sun’s ultimate fate and its role in the eternal cycle of stars, black holes, and creation. 
    A story of cosmic wonder and human destiny, The Sun Engine is both a scientific exploration and a poetic meditation on the central star that sustains us all.
