A Gluten Free Birthday for Me by Sue Fliess –OPTIONAL

Fliess, Sue A Gluten Free Birthday for Me 19 pgs. Albert Whitman & Company, 2013. $16.99.  Content: Language: G (0 swears); Mature Content: G; Violence: G. PICTURE BOOK
One adorable little girl has everything ready for a birthday party which includes all her friends. When the guest arrive, its all fun and games. When its time for cake, one little boy is sitting alone, feeling left out. Why? Because he is gluten free. Turns out that this birthday girl is gluten free too –so its cake for everyone! Includes recipes.
This was a great book about how normal it is to be gluten free. The illustrations are great and it would make a nice addition to any library; provided that you have need for this demographic. I only know of one student at my school, so this would make a great classroom book.
