Millions of children across the country have food sensitivities or allergies, and the number is on the rise. And most of these children don?t get to eat cookies, for fear of the reaction they might have from the wheat, or the peanuts.
This book?s recipe?s take into account all of the most common food sensitivities like wheat and gluten, peanuts, or dairy. Each recipe can be modified to fit the dietary needs of the child.
Divided into three sections-- snacks, main dishes, and treats--this book also provides information about how to find what you need in a regular grocery store, instead of requiring a separate trip to the natural foods store.
With the recipes in this book, even the most sensitive child will get a cookie too.

Don't waste your money. . .these recipes are poor quality!:
I bought this book when my son was first diagnosed with an egg and nut allergy. First of all, if your child has these allergies and no others, don't even bother because the substitutions are just like "omit nuts" or "use ener-g egg replacer". Really?

BEST book ever!:
This is my favorite book out of the 3 I bought. The recipes are easier to make and has a little less ingredients. We have had several things out of this book. Again, we replace the soy milk with raw cow or goat milk. I highly recommend this book.
Excellent resource to have in your food allergy arsenal:
I bought this book soon after my son, who had a peanut allergy, was also diagnosed with wheat & soy. What I love about it is that it calls mainly for rice flour - doesn't require so many different ingredients to have on-hand. I've had other family members & parents at school use recipes with ease... The cutout cookie recipe (using Jell-O pudding as a starter) is amazing! No one can ever guess they're wheat-free! :)
Not for kids with egg allergies:
My review focuses specifically on the 'egg-free' promise in the title. I was looking for a good cookbook to obtain some new cooking ideas for our egg- and nut- allergic child and thought the title sounded promising 'more than 150 recipes that are: ....egg-free..." Luckily I only picked up the book from the library rather than pay for a copy. I am glad I did not purchase it. The book includes recipes with eggs such as 'French Toast Bake' (4 eggs) and 'Cream Puffs' (5 eggs) but does not offer alternatives to... more info
