Emma and the Birthday Week - Hardcover

It can feel very isolating and frustrating for a child dealing with the restricted diet caused by severe food allergies, or by eosinophilic esophagitis (EOE), a complex and challenging chronic disease.

This is a very special week. Emma gets to celebrate friends at their birthday parties and host a birthday party of her own! But when her allergies and EOE have her feeling left out, Emma has to make a choice. With the help of her dad, can Emma figure out a way to keep herself safe, explain what she needs, and still have the best birthday week ever?

This fun and informative children's picture book is as realistic as it is hopeful and uplifting, helping your child feel better about navigating new and different situations in an empowered way.

Based on the author's real-life experiences, this inspiring series lets kids know they aren't alone feeling nervous about something that makes them unique. A perfect story to empower children with allergies to stand up for themselves and educate others along the way.
