After watching documentaries about the reality of the meat and dairy industry, I decided to go vegan for ethical reasons. That was a little over 2 years ago. Unfortunately for me I didn’t know any vegetarians let alone vegans. So, I took it a day at a time figuring out how to eat, dress and live accordingly to my new-found beliefs. But I wish I could have had access to a book just like the “All-in-One Guide to Becoming Vegan” by Annie Carbonneau. If you are French (like me), the book is also available in French which I think is really going to help make veganism more accessible in France. In French the book is called: le petit guide du tout-en-un du véganisme

The book covers all the basics from why one should go vegan to practical tips on how to transition as smoothly as possible. It starts with a good explanation of why people usually go vegan – for animal rights, environmental reasons, and their health. Annie goes into details which I really appreciate. I think that it’s a great book to have especially if your family or friends don’t understand your choice or if your parents are worried that veganism is not a healthy diet.

Annie goes on to sharing her own experience going vegan as well as practical advice on how to do so healthfully. I like that in the Kindle version, there are direct links to websites she suggests at the end of the book with further resources.

All in all, I think that the “All-in-One Guide to Becoming Vegan” is a great book for those curious about the vegan lifestyle or beginning their journey as a vegan. The book is sold on Amazon here:
