GHM Mother’s Day Giveaway of the Day: Raising Baby Green

Welcome to Day 4 of the GHM Mother’s Day Giveaways featuring a copy of Raising Baby Green compliments of Wiley Press.

This contest is now closed. Thanks for entering! Congrats to winner Sally!

Today’s Giveaway helps you get your green on! I’ve also posted about this book before.

Raising Baby Green: The Earth-Friendly Guide to Pregnancy, Childbirth, and Baby Care (Jossey-Bass/Wiley; 2007; $16.95) is the most comprehensive, up-to-date guide for parents on how to raise happy babies “green,” that is, in a manner that is healthy for them and also for the earth.

It’s great to get to give away some of my favorite things! I think it’s non-preachy and has some solid advice in it. I like that the format reads like a reference book, therefore it’s quite easy to find the information you are looking for, from nursery furniture to gardening advice.

Now go enter the contest!
Just enter a comment below, and make sure to enter your email so we can contact you when you win (it’s never shared, sold, rented, nor will others be able to view it). Contest ends Friday, 5/9/08 at 11:59 p.m. CST. See full GHM Giveaway rules here.

Good luck!

My husband and I are expecting our first child in July and have really been trying to find products and ways of doing things that are “green”. We’ve decided on cloth diapering, and are trying to go with the most natural cleaning products we can find. This book seems like it would be a great help!
I love your site, too! It’s given us lots of great ideas!
