Wonderful overview of handling peanut allergy

This book thoroughly covers all the basics of peanut allergy. It would be an excellent guide for someone new to the allergy. I have read other books and websites and I have been dealing with my child's severe peanut allergy for years, and I still learned a lot from it. It would also be a good resource for schools.

Very informative book

This is a very comprehensive book on peanut allergies. It is written for children, teens and adults who have peanut allergies. I was made aware of things I had not even thought about before. I also became more relaxed as I learned how to handle allergic reactions such as these. I highly recommend this book if you have a person who has peanut allergies in your home or not. This is an allergy that is becoming more prevalent and we should all be aware of how to protect and help those of all ages that have this allergy. If you yourself have this allergy it will provide much needed enlightenment as to what all the tests are for, what to be careful of, and what to do should you ingest peanut.
