This is a short children's book about a girl with Type 1 Diabetes, in which the main character, Ari, gets a constant glucose monitor, unfortunately though, she's afraid of this big change. Eventually, with a bit of persuasion she reluctantly decides to at least give the new device a chance. But will she decide she hates it or loves it? Author's Notes:This book is great for younger audiences with Type 1 Diabetes, especially those who are considering getting a CGM or wanting to know more about CGM therapy. It's suitable for preschoolers up and is an easy to read book with lots of pictures of full color pictures of Ari so that the audience can relate to the character and not feel alone dealing with this disease. There are also pictures of the CGM so if you or your child are considering trying out a constant glucose monitor you'll somewhat know what to expect. There's also a few humorous moments in this book that will help keep your child interested, as well as learning the important life lesson that sometimes change is good.As with all "I Am Ari" books, all proceeds will go directly towards "Ari's" diabetes alert service dog, so your purchase will go towards an excellent cause. Please don't forget to leave your honest review of our book, whether it's positive or negative, because, as I'm sure, many of you know it is hard to find up to date T1D children's books that do not contain misconceptions. This was actually one of the reasons I started writing these books with my daughter! Not only will your reviews help other T1 parents and children decide if this is the right book for their family, it will also help me better fine tune any future books. In addition if you have any suggestions for a book that you just can't find out there to help your T1 child or you as a parent please feel free to let me know what other books you would like to see out there in your reviews as well and we will do our best to write the books you feel just aren't out there. Thank you for considering our book and if you do purchase a copy thank you so much from our Type 1 family to yours!

About the Author

I am a stay at home mother of two children, Ari and Ty. I have always loved reading and wanted to write books and once my daughter became a Type 1 Diabetic I decided to go ahead and go for my dream of writing. I never thought I'd be writing children's nonfiction but now that I have I really enjoy it and plan on writing many more. Eventually I also want to write some adult help books about diabetes as well. I strongly feel that, as a mother of a diabetic child, I should help other families and children going through this disease, that way no one has to go through the struggles alone.
