 Very helpful if a child has peanut/tree nut allergies October 24, 2006

Ricky, the preschooler featured in this picture book, reminds me very much of my peanut-allergic grandson, Robbie. Robbie understood and enjoyed the story of Ricky, a little boy who must always ask if a food is safe for him. The photos of real people and real food complement the message of avoiding certain foods and of offering acceptable substitutes. This story is a basic book that young children and adults can discuss and enjoy again and again.
Perfect! November 19, 2007

Great teaching tool for my 3 y.o. The photos and message are clear and easy to understand without being too scary.
Introduce Your Food-Allergic Preschooler to Ricky April 27, 2007

"Mommy, Is This Safe to Eat?" is a delightful storybook illustrated with child's-eye-view photographs of an actual 3-year-old at home, the grocery store, the park, and a party. Food-allergic preschoolers will love seeing the pictures of Ricky (a little boy who is "just like them") handling the same everyday food allergy challenges and frustrations that they do. The photos present food allergies as a very real, normal part of this otherwise-ordinary little boy's life.
The book includes photos of peanuts, tree nuts, and common nut-containing foods, as well as basic tips for parents. A terrific resource for food-allergic toddlers and preschoolers, as well as their friends and classmates.
An excellent resource for families of allergic preschoolers May 14, 2007

Ms. Black's book, "Mommy, Is This Safe to Eat? A Guide for Preschoolers Allergic to Peanuts and Tree Nuts" is very appropriate for allergic preschoolers and their families, whether new to allergic living or quite familiar with these allergies (my preschool-aged allergic son connected with the book instantly). Among the book's attributes are photos of peanuts, tree nuts and baked goods, a healthy dialogue about "safe" and "unsafe" foods, a focus on the role of family in keeping an allergic child safe, and most importantly, photos of a real-life, happy boy managing allergic living. These factors together combine to create a tool greater than the sum of its parts.
Fantastic book! August 23, 2007

I feel this is the most appropriate book on the subject that I have found for my 2 1/2 year old. It is simple, gives her the most important information without bogging her down with too many details. The real photos are quite helpful so she can recognize nuts, and the fact that there's a real boy named Ricky out there with the same issue seems comforting to her. She refers to Ricky by name. I highly recommend this book and sharing it with close friends, and teachers so others can have a better understanding of your child.
