Someone close to me has announced diabetes and it frightened me, then I figured out why, doctors and other diabetics’ shares didn’t process well in my brain, so I found a better teacher to help with this,…simply. This picture book helped me a lot. Sometimes, explanations are just not clicking, that picture books do the trick. Great book! Full of understanding, and empathy which I enjoyed greatly.

This is a cute book. Teddy is a good companion to Emily. He helps her to live with her TID...type 1 diabetes. For young children dealing with TID, this is a book that would be a good one to have around. It shows children that TID does not have to be scary and you can still live a productive life; playing with friends.

I love this book for teaching my students about type 1 diabetes. The kids in the elementary school love it too!
