About the Book

One of the best ways to help a child who needs to be gluten free is to help the important adults in his/her life understand what this means. For someone who doesn't need to follow a strict gluten-free diet, it can be difficult to understand. After all, the word "diet" usually means "cheat a little." For a person with celiac (or nonceliac gluten sensitivity) 100% adherence is very important. Yes, a crumb can make a difference. This "children's" book is helping teachers, grandparents, childcare providers, and others understand what gluten is. It is helping them understand the importance of food safety while including all children. Hailey's Gluten Free Surprise: Helping Others Understand Gluten Free follows Hailey through her first six months of a new school year after being diagnosed with celiac disease. She is very accepting of her medically required diet, offering a, "That's OK," when she cannot be included in a special treat with her peers. Hailey's attitude, as well as her ability to speak up for her needs, offers other children a positive role model. But she also shows others the sad feelings that can arise, and that are so natural when a person feels left out or when they cannot eat something that looks and smells good. In the end, Hailey's teacher and peers understand a bit more about gluten. They secretly plan to make their Valentine's Day party completely gluten free so she can be included. While this certainly won't happen in every classroom, the purpose of this story is to help promote empathy and understanding. Hailey's Gluten Free Surprise is about the acceptance that is required by the child with a special diet and it is about the understanding that is required by those who are important parts of his or her life. *Teachers: if one of your students requires a gluten-free diet, please ask him or her first before reading this book to the entire class. While some children are thrilled to share a book that is about themselves, some children don't want to be the focus. But please do read it for yourself. Your understanding of gluten free is very important. (Identical boys' version: Adam's Gluten Free Surprise)
About the Author: Debbie has been involved in celiac awareness and support since she discovered that she needed to be gluten free in 2000. Her desire to increase celiac awareness and an understanding of a gluten free diet led to 'Adam's Gluten Free Surprise: Helping Others Understand Gluten Free, ' her first children's book. Her inspiration for Adam was her children who supported and accepted a gluten free kitchen because their mom's health depended on it. She was inspired by her son's positive matter-of-fact attitude when it was discovered that he also required a gluten free diet. He faced each school and social event with an inspiringly positive acceptance. Debbie is passionate about the testing of children, and anyone who may have health issues related to undiagnosed celiac, a disease that affects nearly 1% of us. She hopes to ease the path for those who require a gluten free diet with her books 'Adam's Gluten Free Surprise' and 'Hailey's Gluten Free Surprise.' She also wrote, 'The Syrup Maze: An Inspirational Journey Through Recovery From a Traumatic Brain Injury, ' about her son after an auto accident in 2012. Included is the struggle they faced in the hospital and in rehab with safe and appropriate gluten free food for her son who has nonceliac gluten sensitivity. Change is needed
