Reviewed in the United States on April 23, 2015
Comprehensive, well-indexed, and clearly written, with a realistic approach that is frank and non-judgmental. Example scenarios, and recounting of real-life discussions with teens, make the book engaging. The content includes guidance, from an expert diabetes healthcare professional, for issues with which teenagers deal but might be afraid to bring up with others.

Great book for my daughter who was recently diagnosed with diabetes. I would highly recommend for any teenager!

This book was perfect for our teen with diabetes. It was very thorough & easy to understand. My teen liked the stories about other teenagers & actually read it herself!
