...certain Potter purists are concerned about Harry's upcoming first appearance on the silver screen. British producer David Heyman saw a blurb on The Sorcerer's Stone shortly after its British publication but before the book became a smash. He brought the project to Warner Bros. (like TIME, owned by Time Warner), which optioned the book. The plan is for a live-action film, with Harry played as a British schoolboy. A first script, by Steven Kloves, who wrote and directed The Fabulous Baker Boys, is due by the end of the year...
...best to get these and other nutrients from food. But they're so important for proper development--even a short bout of mild anemia, for example, can have permanent effects on young brains--that Roberts and Heyman recommend daily supplements (though not megavitamins) for kids at least up to age three. And no, they didn't take money from the vitamin companies to make that recommendation...
...needs--which are very different from those of adults--you can bet I'm going to recommend it to every parent I know.

Their book, which is available starting this week, should be required reading for anyone with children under...
...there's plenty of practical advice on how to make sure that your kids actually eat their peas rather than just shoving them aside. One tip: you may have to serve two-year-olds a new food frequently--as often as 15 times over several months. As Roberts and Heyman explain, there's an evolutionary reason for toddlers to be picky eaters: it cut down a tiny hunter-gatherer's chances of food poisoning. Most important, don't trigger their natural rebellious streak by letting on that you think the food is good for them...
...stress the consumption of many different foods. But they never warn that this can work against you. Studies show that if a plate contains two types of cookies, for instance, you'll eat more than if only one kind is available. The same is true for vegetables. Roberts and Heyman advise parents that if they must keep cookies in the house, they should stick to one brand and save the variety for healthier foods. As with anything having to do with children, it takes a little planning and a lot of patience to make sure they eat right...
