Got this book for my son who has severe food allergies, what I didnt know was this book is about a boy with wheat, milk allergies. So there is a part at the end of the book about how the boy is diffrent now but he will soon grow out of the allergies and be just the same as all other kids. We had to skip this page because son will never grow out of his nut allergy just wish I'd know what the book said prior to buying it.

Taking Food Allergies to School
Quick shipping; however, this is actually a 32-page simplistic BOOKLET for kids. Nice pictures but a bit pricey for the size.
