Hello Kitten
I have this book called "Pregnancy,Children and the VEGAN DIET" by Michael Klaper. In times when I feel it is only me and my boy friend raising a vegan child it is nice to see other kids raised on a vegan diet.

Thanks, Marie. I'm not sure if it's avail. on Amazon anymore, but I will have a look, that book has been mentioned on another vegan forum too.

I ordered the e-book version and have been reading it, it's good so far!

And thanks, Powder, I will check it out.

I've read all the vegan parenting books mentioned.
The Erin Pavlina book is best for parents with kids that are school aged (5-12) and the social problems that come with that difference, and the Keppler Book is best for specifics about nutrition and diet starting with pregnancy, but it mentions little about the practical social issues.

The best parenting book I've read, though, is Unconditional Parenting by Alfie Kohn. The book isnt' about veganism at all, but I think that it is the best plan for raising kids that are independent and ethical... which undoubtedly leads to veganism .

Korn- What an awesome video- thanks everyone for what they have shared.

The only other books I would add to the list that I think every vegan parent should read are; "The China Study" by T. Colin Campbell and "Disease-Proof Your Child: Feeding Kids Right" by Joel Furhman.
