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. For as long as she can remember, Emma has dreamed of starting kindergarten. So much to learn, so many friends to meet! Emma has a disease called EOE, which means she has a number of allergies and many off-limits foods. So, the night before, she packs some of her favorites-turkey, applesauce, edamame and vegan cheese puffs. Suddenly, she gets nervous and wonders, "What will my class think of this food? Will my new classmates think it's odd? Will they make fun of me?" As always, her mom gives her some great suggestions, and sure enough, by the end of Emma's first day in kindergarten, she's made a new best friend. And guess what? She'd been just as nervous as Emma! 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 experience, this inspiring story lets kids know they aren't alone feeling nervous about something that makes them unique, and that they can still make lots of friends at school. A perfect story to empower children with allergies to stand up for themselves and educate others along the way.

Autorenporträt
Emma Vigrass is a vibrant and spirited young girl from South Carolina. She was diagnosed with Eosinophilic Esophagitis (EOE) at the age of one year old and started a journey that brought her to writing this book. She decided that she wanted to help other friends, both those who struggle with allergy and disease management or simply friends who don't always feel like others, to feel strong in their beliefs and brave in their actions. As you can imagine, Emma dreams big and plays hard. She has a little sister she adores, and she loves to swim, play with friends, practice gymnastics and spend time outside. Reading is a big part of Emma's family life, and her mom and dad have always encouraged her to be bold and try new things. Emma hopes that this book can be a useful tool to explain her disease to her new friends at school while educating her community at the same time. We hope this book shares a glimpse of the joy that is Emma: a girl who has met every new challenge with a smile and a can-do attitude.
