I can&#8217;t think of a single child (I&#8217;m dating myself, I&#8217;m sure), except for silly me, but mine were for bee stings. That certainly is not the case now! Our daughter was always one of the <em>many<\/em>\u00a0students with epi-pens stored with the school nurse for years (luckily, miraculously, she outgrew her peanut allergy in middle school).<\/p>\n<p>As unique as I think our daughter is, she&#8217;s one of millions of kids in the U.S. with food allergies &#8230; exact numbers vary, but all agree that the prevalence of food allergies is definitely growing. Peanuts, of course, are at the top of the list for being the most common food allergy.<\/p>\n<p>Thanks to author <a href=\"http:\/\/www.royallyallergic.com\/author.php\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Sue Ganz-Schmitt<\/a>, allergies get a royal makeover in one of the most cleverly entertaining re-inventions of a classic fairytale <em>ever<\/em>. Gorgeous, richly detailed illustrations from <a href=\"http:\/\/www.micahmonkey.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow\">Micah Chambers-Goldberg<\/a>\u00a0imbue the story with utter charm and delightful humor.<\/p>\n<p>A sweet, goofy prince is searching for the perfect princess. He has no luck until a lost stranger arrives at the castle on a late rainy night. She turns out to be allergic to the peanut hidden under many mattresses (because the castle is just plain out of peas), and a doctor is rushed in with a dose of epinephrine. The princess quickly recovers, the prince recognizes his soulmate (and vice-versa) and gives up even his favorite snack\u2013\u00a0peanut butter \u2013 to remain close by her side. He makes sure to wash his\u00a0hands when he asks for hers (in marriage).\u00a0The castle goes all peanut- and tree nut-free and everyone is sure to live happily ever after.<\/p>\n<p>Younger readers will definitely enjoy the adventure, but adults just might have even more fun: the creators both have a subversive, multi-layered sense of humor and really know how get you to giggle and guffaw right along (no spoilers here; you deserve to discover the glee all on your own). The final two pages of the book are helpfully filled with useful information for parents, teachers, caregivers as a necessary reminder that food allergies are never a laughing matter.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Readers<\/strong>: Children<\/p>\n<p><strong>Published<\/strong>: 2011<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Quick: Growing up, how many kids did you know who carried epi-pens?
