Produktbeschreibung

If there is one thing ten-year-old Henry Hutter loves, it's peanut butter. That boy will eat it for breakfast, lunch, and dinner-that's how much he loves the stuff! Henry loves peanut butter so much that he doesn't even care that it might hurt someone he loves. See, Henry's little sister Maggie is allergic to peanuts and tree nuts, and no matter how many times Henry's mother warns him how dangerous peanut butter is to Maggie, Henry just doesn't seem to get it. Then one day Henry meets the Nutty Bugs. The tiny creatures show him the many ways his favorite food can hurt Maggie. Once Henry learns the things that can happen to a person with a nutty allergy, Henry becomes a true hero-doing everything he can to help protect Maggie and others. This captivating children's book takes the complicated issue of peanut and tree nut allergies and makes it accessible and engaging for young children. Perfect for helping young ones connect the dots between their actions and the possible consequences of those actions for others, Heroic Henry & the Nutty Bugs is a must-read for school-age children.

Autorenporträt

An identical triplet and the eighth of ten children, Heather Finn was born and raised in Marblehead, Massachusetts, and lives there with her husband and two children. Finn grew up listening to lots of stories as a child and continued the tradition of storytelling with her own kids. When she ran out of family stories to tell, she began to create new ones. While searching for fun, educational books to teach her children about health and hygiene, Finn realized that good books are hard to find. So when she had trouble getting her children to brush their teeth, Finn was inspired to write her first book: Fabulous Farrah & the Sugar Bugs. This was the first book in her Bug Book series. When not telling stories, Finn works in financial services. She holds an MBA, MSF, and a BS from Boston College.
