"Rainbow Food(R)" gets kids excited about food, its colour and flavour and that is a geat thing in a world where good food isn't fun any more.

"Rainbow Food(R)" brings back the fun that food always had before we lost it to a homogenised world. Often our most poignant memories of childhood are about food.

"Rainbow Food(R)" brings food back into the home and into the kitchen, which in many cases has become deserted. It is a wonderfully innnovative approach to our relationship with food, which is at risk of becoming sterile. It is a creative and engaging answer to the frequently asked question "What am I supposed to eat?"

As a nutritionist and health promoter, I hear that question regularly from many people leading busy lives with accompanying disordered eating patterns.

"What am I supposed to feed them?" is another frequently asked question, from exasperated parents struggling with children who are junk food addicts or finicky eaters.

This wonderful work provides innovative nutritional guidance so needed for children.

As advocate of the very successful Mirror Mirror programs, I am very excited about Denise's latest eating program. The book is beautiful to look at, encourages balance and variety and will inspire kids to explore what natural food has to offer.

Rainbow Food has been successfully trialed in the childcare setting, as well as in infant and primary schools. The best results came from the centre which used the program for the longest period of time. An improvement of 319% was achieved in the variety of healthy food sent in from home following the implementation of the Rainbow Food program.
