Yesterday, I wrote about how awesome it is that parent bloggers are starting to have the kind of voices that may influence the world around them, from what happens in the marketplace to what happens in the lives of random individuals.
Here's another example of the "power of the pen." You may remember my post about Paul Kramer's book geared to children, entitled Maggie Goes on a Diet. If you read that post, you'll remember my wrath about the possible effects books like this, and resulting societal attitudes, can have on kids' self-esteem at increasingly earlier ages.
I learned about the book from a column written on NJ.com by Jamie Tripp Utitus. As it turns out, Jamie eventually found my post and let me know that Kramer contacted her about it and has created a revised version of the book, entitled, Maggie Eats Healthier.
