About this item
by Suzy Brauer (Author), Noemie Gionet Landry (Illustrator), Sakina Shikari Bajowala (Author)
Food allergen oral immunotherapy (OIT) is a transformative treatment for life-threatening food allergies that can protect patients from accidental ingestion and allow them to freely introduce the allergen into their diets. However, it can be difficult for young children to understand the process of beginning to eat something they have spent their lives strictly avoiding. In this book, a board-certified allergist with extensive experience in food allergy treatment and a mother of children whose food allergies have been treated by OIT join forces to explain this exciting therapy to children using the power of storytelling. Follow along as Zippy, an aspiring race car who is allergic to racing fuel, works to treat his allergy and become a champion!
