By the title of the book, you might think: Oh… Ok, this is a book for parents, I’m not a parent yet.

Do not put the book back on the bookstore shelf, do not let the words or your first judgment fool you. This is a book, reading for everyone. From newly parents to longtime parents, roommates, and to the ones who still lives with their parents, like me, because I’m sure you love the people around you, so you will feel the need to protect them.

Christopher’s writing is truly inspiring, he knows what he is talking about. His writing makes you feel like you are sitting and listening to it in front of him.
The book is very enlightning and very easy to read, (even for me who English is not my first language).

Of course we are not aware of all the chemicals, their names and what they can do to our body. But this book is here to show us, not scary us, to show us, to open our eyes.

You might feel a little scared, overwhelmed of what chemicals are capable of, and how they are in our house everyday, and how Companies don’t even give us the proper information about it. But, besides all of that, you will feel very happy to know, to be aware of all of it, and also excited to do big changes in yours and your family lives.

But remember, don’t try to get everything done at once, or you might not getting any. 

As Christopher says:

“No one can do everything but everyone can do something.”
