Customer Reviews

Wonderful book!

This is one of the books that the Diabetes Foundation of Mississippi gives to newly diagnosed children and their families as part of our We Care 2/Diabetes 101 care packages. It is upbeat, kid friendly and is perfect to bring to school to educate classmates on the basics of diabetes! We are fortunate to have the video too-it's a great film to show elementary school children to increase their understanding of their classmate's diagnosis or to teach them about diabetes in general.

Simplified Help fo New Patients and Parents

A great help for those new to diabetes.Maes everyhing easy to understand.

Not Just for Kids

I am an R.N. in an acute care hospital and this is the best book I have found for newly diagnosed diabetics. It's simple, but not childish. It gives all the pertinent information for a diabetic to get off to a good start without overloading them with a lot of medical jargon and technical information. It's officially recommended for pre-teens, but I find it beneficial for even adults. When they are ready to learn more, then they can move up to a more advanced book.
