I have to share another book find, but on the opposite end of the spectrum! After sharing this children’s book recently with the LIF family, I thought I should share it with you guys, too! My new favorite is an adorable story named, “Nutley: the Nut-Free Squirrel” by Stephanie Sorkin. First off, I love absolutely any children’s books about squirrels (yes, I'm a huge “Scaredy Squirrel” fan) so from the start this book was a win. Then I actually read the story and understood the perspective it was taking, which I loved even more!
Nutley is an adorable squirrel who finds out he’s allergic to nuts: A scary reality that a lot of parents and their children (or aunts and uncles with their nieces and nephews) need to face every day. I loved that this book was not only fun and brightly illustrated, but also an outlet for children to understand a little more and to remember they’re not alone.
Best part of said lovable story? The author is donating 100% of her proceeds to FARE, an organization devoted to food allergy research and education. Check it out!
