T1D Superhero: Origins

by Emily N. Goff

Luka is just your average kid. He lives with his mom, and he has a teddy bear named Blue. But Luka is also a superhero. Luka has Type 1 Diabetes. According to his mom, living with Type 1 Diabetes every day makes him a superhero. But how did it all start? How did he find out he has Type 1 Diabetes? This story explains the signs and symptoms leading up to Luka’s diagnosis from a kid’s point of view, and mom throws in some info for the grown-ups along the way! This book is great not only for a child who lives with Type 1 Diabetes themselves, but it is a wonderful book for the grown-up caregivers in their lives, as well as anyone who would like to know more about the signs and symptoms of Type 1 Diabetes. An excellent educational resource that anyone can read to help build awareness about T1D!
