A Lesson for Every Child: Learning About Food Allergies
Mar 16, 2020
Food allergies affect as many as 32 million Americans, including 6 million children.
Portland, Mar 16, 2020 (Issuewire.com) - Authors Sally Huss and Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino collaborate on best-selling children's book to raise awareness for children with food allergies.
Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino, who has a long history as an advocate for those with food allergies, contacted author/illustrator Sally Huss to see if she would consider doing a children's book on the subject. After researching the subject and understanding the need, Sally jumped in. Elizabeth provided the guidelines and offered significant points needed in such a book.
"When I was contacted by Elizabeth Hamilton-Guarino to consider doing a book for children on food allergies, I was totally unaware of this disability and its emotional consequences, said Huss." "She added, "Once I became informed, I could certainly understand the need for a special book on the subject. I created this, aiming to inform those children who do not have the condition, as well as to encourage a positive attitude in those kids who do. I am delighted at the result and hopefully, this book will enlighten many kids, their parents, teachers and caregivers."
After the text was written, the two honed the details and the book was created. Elizabeth added her special expertise in the area of promotion by providing outstanding endorsements for the book.
"This may be the most important books that I've written. It will certainly educate kids who are unaware of food allergies and encourage them to be especially kind to kids with it. It will also inspire those kids who do have this condition to value themselves for the discipline that they must have in regards to food choices. Everyone learns something important with this book, said Huss"
Hamilton-Guarino has life-threatening food allergies herself for over 24 years to peanuts, tree nuts, fish and shellfish. She is an author with Hay House of the book PERCOLATE - Let Your Best Self Filter Through and details much of her life with these allergies, including a near-death reaction she had while 6 months pregnant with their son Cam. Hamilton-Guarino has been a spokesperson for MedicAlert Foundation since 2006 and appeared on their magazine cover, which was mailed to more than one million members.

About the Book
Learning was everything to Mrs. Emerson. So when a new student was brought into her classroom, Mrs. Emerson was delighted because she learned that this young man knew something that everyone needed to know. She said that Jack was just like everyone else, except for one thing - he had food allergies. "Would you like to explain that to us, Jack?"
A bit hesitant, Jack began telling his classmates what it was like to have food allergies, what the dangers were, and what he had to do to protect himself, or even save himself if he had an allergic reaction. The students listened attentively and then applauded him when their teacher praised his courage. "Jack has faced a difficult situation and handled it. He is an example of someone who has tremendous self-discipline. Anyone who has that can do anything!"
Jack left school that day with a new spring in his step and a classroom full of new friends.
