This book is gross. Like, really gross. You probably shouldn’t read it if you gag easily. But you probably should read it if you are looking for ways to ease worries during your diabetes care routine. It turns out that there are a lot of things that are way worse than checking blood sugar, getting a shot, changing an insulin pump infusion site, and changing a continuous glucose monitor. As the old saying goes, taking care of your diabetes is a lot better than getting pooped out by a great white shark. With laugh-out-loud lines by Gillian King-Cargile and delightfully disgusting illustrations by Shawn Turek, this feel-better diabetes book will reassure readers that getting (or giving) a little poke is not the worst thing ever!
Meet the robot on your tummy! Getting a continuous glucose monitor (CGM) is a big adjustment, but it is also a big help in learning to monitor blood sugar and live well with diabetes. Featuring fun rhymes, hand-painted illustrations, and colorful scenarios, The Robot on My Tummy takes children on an imaginative journey through the ways a CGM can change their care routine for the better. Helpful backmatter explains how CGMs can assist kids and caregivers in anticipating and managing the highs and lows of diabetes. Whether kids dream of being a popstar, mountain climber, or space wizard, this book will help them develop a positive attitude about their new CGM companion, the robot on their tummy!
