I am not celiac but I don't eat wheat to help with a chronic health condition and it's always such a pleasure to see people mentioning gluten-free options. I'd not heard of Harry Eastwood's book and I can tell you after reading the reviews on Amazon that it's going to be making a home in my kitchen for sure. Just a quick note, the Babycakes cookbook has a fair amount of recipes that use spelt flour and as such are not gluten-free. It's still a fabulous book I'm sure, but may be disappointing for some. Thanks again for the suggestions! Wow, thanks for the awesome post.

I made lemon bars out of it and they were AWESOME. Just as good as the ones my mom used to make. You can get it on Amazon. Of course! Recently I bought “1000 Gluten Free Recipes”.

My favorite gluten free cookbooks include the Bette Hagman series previously mentioned, especially The Gluten Free Gourmet Cooks Comfort Foods. Gluten Free Baking Classics by Annalise Roberts and Gluten Free Baking by Rebecca Reilly are also favorites. I'm sugar free as well as gluten free, so I still have to adjust recipes, but these books all provide great starting point recipes.

It is always meaningful for me, and I hope others, to have an author share the motivations and story behind her work. @Adriana Thanks for adding to this post.

Just wanted to point out that one of the main objectives in writing the book was to help families enjoy the same food at home regardless of whether or not they are gluten intolerant. The playdough recipe came about as a result of my daughter attending nursery. She was a thumb sucker and this would have meant she would have had to miss out on all the fun at the playdough table. My modus operandi is all about inclusion, not exclusion. Thanks for the review.
