I felt the information was very thorough in the new Food Allergies module and I loved the food substitution sections! Having several areas from "experts" was an intriguing way to provide information from different angles (for example: Redleaf publications, examples from a childcare agency from S. Carolina, C.D.C. and Child Health). I loved the additional resources section; I plan on locating a couple of the books you mentioned to have on hand for when the opportunity arises. I had no idea there were so many books to help children understand their allergies. I am also going to place a drawing of an Epi-pen on the cabinets where we store them for children who have it prescribed.
