This review is from: Zooallergy : A Fun Story About Allergy and Asthma Triggers (Paperback)

As a Special Education Parents Advisory Committee board member, we donated the entire series to our town library, pre-2, and 3-4th grades. Awareness education helps students, parents and teachers dispell misconceptions that we are all the same. It's OK to be different and here is why...This series clearly explains what the problem is and what tools there are to work with it.
