Got Food Allergies? Make Sure Classrooms Are Safe
Touching New Book conveys food allergy message in the classroom
Concord, NC - Living with allergy is undeniably challenging, and conveying that message in the classroom is especially difficult for the young student. A touching tale about a little food allergic girl reflects food allergy concerns in the classroom while helping students, teachers and parents convey these concerns to others. Xlibris proudly releases Field Trip Safety, a special new picture story book written by author Penny L. Webster.
"Attending school with food allergies can be risky. Parents work extremely hard with school teachers, nurses, and those in charge of the lunch room to come up with a safe plan." said Penny Webster, author of Field Trip Safety. "Many parents rely on nut-free signs placed in the classroom doorways or on the lunch tables to convey this message to others. These signs work great for adults but what about the children? Students need better instruction on what they can do to help keep allergic friends safe." Field trip safety does just that.
Field Trip Safety tells a touching story about food allergy through a child's point of view. Readers will be introduced to Sara, a city girl who realizes being different from others is a special thing. Sara also realizes that she's not the only unique girl around as she meets another food-allergic girl who lives in the countryside. Together they form a close friendship and realize that by making a few adjustments they can help each other out.
Highly recommended to children, parents, and teachers, Field Trip Safety emphasizes the struggles kids face when it comes to food allergy. With its colorful illustrations and wonderful storytelling, this picture book will make readers care about food allergic people and be able to relate with their concerns. The story behind Field Trip Safety reflects the author's understanding of what it truly is like to have a child with food allergies.
