About the Author:
April Peveteaux passed out from happiness when The New Yorker called her debut book, Gluten Is My Bitch, "highly entertaining." After she woke up, she went on to pen two more hilarious books about digestive disorders, The Gluten-Free Cheat Sheet and now, Bake Sales Are My Bitch. She lives in Los Angeles, CA.
Review:
“Bake Sales Are My B*tch should be required reading for any parent or caregiver of a school-age child, as it expertly—and quite humorously—spells out what's it's like living with the serious, constant fear of a life-and-death allergy attack while so many others laugh it away or simply don't "believe" allergies are a big deal. Pevetaux brings the same hilarious, no-nonsense stories and tales that made Gluten Is My B*tch feel as if you're just hanging out with a good friend—combined with some seriously yum recipes to boot! Buy it. Eat it. Love it.”

“As a proud parent of a child with food allergies, Bake Sales are my B*tch, had me at the title page. Little did I know I would laugh until I myself broke out in hives. Literally. I don't think I've ever laughed so hard while reading a book.
April Peveteaux's hysterical allergen-ifesto isn't just a book for parents of kids with food allergies, it's for anyone who has ever accidentally served the wrong appetizer at a holiday party or judged another parent for their peanut paranoia. Yes, person who just rolled their eyes, I'm talking to you. You will love this book as much as I did. Swear.”

“Having a child with food allergies is challenging. Allergy moms need support to keep going, and a laugh every now and then to keep from killing people. Bake Sales Are My B*tch is the best allergy mom book EVAH! It’s funny and educational and easy for anyone to pick up and understand.”
