Year One with Type One

by Mike Suarez

Summary

How does a child respond to a sudden diagnosis of type 1 diabetes? Through Andrew’s eyes, you’ll get a first hand look at the symptoms, diagnosis, and everyday routine of type one. At 4 years old, he manages his new responsibility while still managing to enjoy everything a kid his age should. The fun rhyme and playful scenes make this book accessible, not only to diagnosed children, but to the family members, friends, and classmates looking for an inside look into T1D.
