Having food allergies can be challenging, this children’s allergy book will help you and your child understand what having a severe allergic reaction means. Covering likely symptoms of anaphylaxis and the use of an EpiPen®, the book encourages discussion with your child that may ultimately be life-saving.

 

Join Thai as he experiences his first anaphylactic reaction. Discover what symptoms he had, how his family helped and supported him and what happened after he got his first EpiPen®. Discussing Thai’s experience can help your child feel more confident and at ease with their allergies and opens discussion on any fears they may have. It’s important children know all the symptoms of an allergic reaction and know where to get help, they feel empowered to advocate for their own safety. As always the adorable, cheeky Rabbie is never far from Thai’s side. See if you can spot him hiding on every page.

 

This allergy book is a must for any parent as an educational resource to aid allergy education and explain anaphylaxis.

Often we talk about the steps we take to stop us having an allergic reaction, but once accidental exposure has happened children also need reassurance of what happens next.
