About the Author

Ava Ventrella was nine when she started writing this cookbook. Two years later, and with encouragement, her efforts to publish have come true. In her young life so far, she has had the opportunity to travel the world, make many wonderful friends, and learn from those who have influenced her.

Ava’s brother was diagnosed with Sotos Syndrome when he was young, and her family’s “normal,” she came to find, was not the same as other families. Special needs siblings present a variety of challenges and learning difficulties both for the individual and for the family. From these challenges come many stories of success and funny anecdotes. Ava wrote this cookbook to help families share time in the kitchen with an understanding that not everything has to be perfect, that being different is okay, and that everyone needs help sometimes.
