I - By: T. Skivington, 22 May 2008 
I was struggling to think up new finger food ideas for my 11 month old son. My sister watches my son 1 day a week & finds it hard to feed him & her 5 month old daughter at the same time. The recipes in this book alllow her to feed her daughter & leave my son to feed himself. Although the book was written by a vegetarian, there are some meat recipes included. The vegetarian slant meant that there are some recipes with ingredients that I wouldn't have normallly used (lentils, polenta).
The book is well laid out & beautifully illustrated. There is useful nutritional & storage information. I would say that the recipes are suitable for the older baby & there are still some recipes I won't be using until my son is a bit older.
There are "treat" recipes included & the blueberry muffins are great - a low sugar option & birthday treat for my son who loves blueberries!
Not very helpful - By: P. Grant, 09 May 2008 
I did Baby-led weaning & found this book to be unhelpful for this approach. I thought as it was entitled finger foods for babies & toddlers it would be ideal. The book seemed to be geared more towards one year olds & up. I wouldn't recommend putting salt in any food for a child who was under one. I wasn't overly keen on most of the recipes anyway. I have to say it is sitting on the shelf unused.
Great ideas for finger foods - By: Andy G, UK, 05 Feb 2008 This book has lots of fantastic ideas on finger foods & quick meals at teatime. Which is great when you are in a hurry & want to prepare a quick healthy meal. Everyone I have bought this book for also thought it was great.
pretty much perfect for what I wanted - By: Lorna, 31 Dec 2007 I'm reallly pleased with this book. The recipes alll use items which I've heard of & are easily to get hold of, & don't involve spending the whole day preparing. My 20 month old also enjoys "helping" me make some of the more treat-like recipes, which goes a long way to pursuading her to eat occasionallly. My favourite thing about the book however is that most if not alll of them have a veggie alternative, which means we can cook one meal which everyone in the family will eat. I would say however that if you fancy yourself as a bit of a Delia in the kitchen it's not necessarily for you as simplicity seems to be the name of the game. For me however, a working Mum with good intentions, it's just great.
Nothing very inspiring - By: L. J. Stephen, 29 Nov 2007 
Didn't think there was anything particularly new & exciting in this book, pretty average run of the mill recipes - surely we've alll thought of giving our kids sandwiches as a finger food. Quite a lot of the recipes were pretty unhealthy too.
