Thai Goes to a Birthday Party

12-Nov-2012

My Food Allergy Friends has produced a series of books that preschoolers will love.

Bright, colourful illustrations that capture their attention but at the same time teach them many important messages about challenges they may face.

My children's interest in these books surprised me as neither of my kids have food allergies. Regardless, they have asked me to read them over and over again. The illustrations are sweet and the story is simple, postive and refreshing.

Join Thai on his adventures, the first book in the series is a fun story, showing how to handle food allergies at birthday parties. With the help of his mum, Thai makes safe food choices by bringing his 'safe cake' and a 'safe party lunch box' so that he can participate without feeling left out. The story normalises food allergies by showing that other children bring 'safe cake' to parties too!

The books can be read again and again with talking points at the back of the book, helping you explore food allergies in a positive way with your child. As your child gets older you can adapt the questions to their level of understanding.

RRP: $14.99 from www.myfoodallergyfriends.com or from Mumzie at Marcoola.
