Taking Food Allergies to School

This fun-to-read storybook simplifies and normalizes food allergies. Jeffery and his mom share their trials and triumphs as they deal with Jeffery's allergies at school. This book also explains the effects allergies have on the human body. In addition, children whose conditions set them apart as being different begin to feel accepted and safe. When read aloud by counselors, teachers or school nurses, other children can identify why a peer may be treated differently and begin to empathize with them. Copyright 1999, 32 pages.
