Product Description:

I returned this book.
I was trying to find a peanut allergy book to give to the children in my daughter's class, to help them (and their parents) better understand why she needs to be so careful about peanut butter, etc. I didn't like this book for two reasons: 1. It has pictures of the elephant turning red and choking, and 2. It says things someting like the elephant's classmates felt sorry for Allie because she couldn't have peanuts. I think there are much better books out there ... Read More

There's a big need for books that help young children understand food allergies, both their own and those of their classmates. Unfortunately this is not that book.
My gravest concern about this book is the five pages in the middle of the book that begin with "Oh no... Allie is having hives from the peanuts! Do you want to see Allie get hives?". This refrain is repeated for the symptoms "swelled lips", "red eyes", "itchy nose", and "coughing". Put that way, it would not be unreasonable ... Read More

Love the book. Nice pictures, enjoyable to read, but most importantly - the message got across to my son about the peanuts. Since it is a cute book, we can read it over and over and the message gets reinforced. I'd recommend it for sure.

It's a tough and confusing time for kids. This book is excellent in helping them to understand the seriousness of this allergy, but at the same time help them to realize they are still "regular" (wonderful!) kids. This is important when all of a sudden they have to sit at "special" lunch tables, bring special snacks to parties and play dates, etc...

My 2 year old grandson was found to be allegic to peanuts and tree nuts. Of course I searched to find a special book for him so he'd understand. Ironically, his Dr. recommended the same book. It's his favorite bedtime story and he's getting to know not to eat nuts! What an excellant story to make kids realize what this type of allergy can do to them. Even at this early age-he understands better with the help of this book!
