The "Pink Panther" book was given to us at the Hospital. Dr. Chase gives the most comprehensive collection of Type 1 Diabetes information of all the books I've read on the subject. A few parts of it seemed like "homework", but it was never too technical for me. I hardly go a day of taking care of my 4 year old son who has diabetes without referring back to this book.

This is one of the most compehensive books about Insulin Dependent Diabetes I have found. Initially I was concerned that since the book was from a specific Diabetes Treatment Program/Center it would conflict with the information our doctors are giving us and instead of relieve some stress it would just create more confusion but this has not been the case. I have found it to be a informative addition to my growing collection of diabetes books. Possibly the best thing about it is that it is easy to read--so easy that I have decided to order several more and give them to our relatives in an effort to educate them about Insulin Dependent Diabetes. Also, sprinkled throughout the book are Q & A's that address everyday real concerns not just theories. I think this is one of the first book to read when someone close to you is dealing with a recent diagnosis of Insulin Dependent Diabetes. Give it a try.
