Compassionate Souls
by JoAnn Farb
Review by Erin Pavlina

Compassionate Souls is an original and truly unique book. The author, JoAnn Farb, takes us on a journey through her vegan pregnancy and the challenges of raising two healthy and socially responsible children.

What struck me most about the book was Farb's decision to raise her children consciously, something few people do these days. She researched many important issues facing parents today. Specifically, her quest to find the truth about vaccines impressed me. She sought out authorities, did her own research, and tempered everything she discovered with her own wisdom. Now that's conscious and responsible parenting!

She speaks candidly about how her family responded to her unique views on pregnancy and parenting. I enjoyed her discussion of how to create a peaceful home environment. At times Farb is very opinionated, but this merely shows how resolute she is. Her book really made me think how I'd like to raise my own children.

Compassionate Souls is a fantastic book for any parent looking to make conscious parenting choices, and for parents who would like to raise healthy, socially responsible children. I highly recommend reading this book, especially if you are a vegan parent, interested in homebirthing, homeschooling, and not vaccinating.
