The Only One: Peanut Allergy
You can't eat what everyone else eats and it's your job to say why.
You have a peanut allergy. That is one fact about you. Here are all the other facts.
For the child with a peanut allergy who is tired of explaining it and needs a book that helps them see themselves as more than one fact.
The Name It First Experience
You can't eat peanuts. That means you have to say something at birthday parties, at lunch, at snack time. You have to explain it to new friends and remind old ones. It is your job to know this about yourself — and you do. This book is about all the things that are true about you: the peanut allergy is on the list, but so is everything else. You will write and draw all the things that make you you, and make your own Peanut Allergy Identity Page. The output is not a safety plan. It is a complete picture of who you are.
You can opt into 30-, 60-, and 90-day check-ins from your account. We recommend you do — the point is to see what changed.
Sample questions
- What have you learned about yourself by having to navigate this difference?
- What has living with a peanut allergy required of you — in vigilance, in communication, in self-advocacy?
- What is it like to navigate a world that wasn't designed with your allergy in mind — and what has that taught you about advocating for yourself?
- What do you want the people in your life to understand about what living with a severe allergy means?
