I love this book! What a beautiful message to send to young people
about how to turn circumstances around. It's all about the food of
love and friendship that is the most sustainable, energetically
charged nourishment, not only for young people but for our shared
humanity. There should be an open space on all book shelves to
welcome this heartwarming story."
--Laura Parisi, Food Shaman, Reiki Master, Founder of Rooted Angel
Cooking School
"I cannot say enough good things about this book. I LOVE it! The
biggest challenge to following any special diet is the emotional
component, rather than a lack of knowledge. Maggy finds a creative
way to guide kids who are struggling with dietary restrictions to
reach a place of acceptance. I also appreciated the very useful
visual of the glue monster, especially since that's essentially
what gluten is!"
--Ashley E. Daub, pediatric dietitian, MS, RD, LD
"A book that is both fun (and rhyming!) and important for kids to
understand how celiac disease works and what it means for kids at
school. It will appeal to those who have the disease, as a comfort
and explanation, and to their friends who may not understand why
they can't share some foods."
--Jacqui Lipton, author and literary consultant, Authography
LLC
"Finally! A book for young children that describes one girl's story
of learning to look at her food sensitivities in a different way.
Instead of making her feel isolated and lonely, this book shows
that living gluten-free can be a bonding experience. Written in
rhyming verse, this book teaches about compassion, acceptance,
embracing who you are and finding happiness."
--Tyla Taylor, teacher, coach, mentor, musician, and gluten-free
eater
