'The colors and graphic design of the book are very inviting and make it easy to read. Parents struggling with their child with diabetes, who might not have access to mental health counseling, may find this information very usable and relatable. ... this book could serve as a great resource for the newly diagnosed or those struggling with burnout. This book provides a lot of validation and education in a concise manner.' Harry Miranda, Doody's Reviews
