Peakpublish links with the charity, Baby Milk Action, for true breastfeeding stories.
Peakpublish are pleased to announce the publication of a book promoting breastfeeding with support from Baby Milk Action, the charity famously tackling the multi-national company, Nestle, on their baby milk promotions.
Lyndsey Bradley has collected 40 true and unique breastfeeding stories and poems, from the UK, USA and Canada, sometimes funny, sometimes sad, always poignant, but delivering a fresh approach about the breastfeeding experience, to create an anthology to share with mums who are thinking about, or are already breastfeeding. Lyndsey says, “These stories gave me motivation to continue feeding my two boys when I was finding it difficult.” Lyndsey, who works alongside and supports Breastfeeding groups in Derbyshire, says, “I want this book to inspire other mums to breast-feed”.
Written by mums (and some dads) for mums, this collection is not an alternative to professional advice, but a unique approach to explain breastfeeding from people with experience.
Geraldine Rose, Director of Peakpublish, says, “We are delighted to be working on the book with Lyndsey and Baby Milk Action, who are one of the leading charities for the encouragement of breastfeeding.
Baby Milk Action say, ” There is no food more locally produced or sustainable than breastmilk. A breastfed child is less likely to suffer from gastroenteritis, respiratory and ear infections, diabetes, allergies and other illnesses. Breastfeeding also provides health benefits to the mother, such as reduced risk of some cancers”.
Donations from the sales of this book will go to Baby Milk Action.
The book will be released in time for the World Breastfeeding week in Aug 2009.
