Review Quotes
I found reading through the story of how little Jacq started her life journeys through the GF world so relatable to me. I have a child that is allergic to dairy, my husband has EOE and I have gluten, dairy, and shellfish allergies. It is scary waters to tread through; not knowing what we can safely eat, or how we will relate to others that do not have these food restrictions. This book helps shed a positive light to all newly diagnosed, and brings ways the world can help us feel included. A must-read to remind us that everything will be okay and to rely on each other as a support system.

A heartwarming story about a child discovering her food allergies and understanding how to navigate in the world. Super sweet and full of beautiful, imaginative illustrations. A fun read from start to finish.
