Join Andrew, the T1D hero of Year One with Type One as he guides us through another enlightening journey.

The holiday season can be especially tough on a type 1 diabetic but knowing that others can relate makes a big difference.

From the reindeer and elves to Santa himself, the characters in this tale share many of Andrew’s wonderful qualities. They responsibly manage their T1D. They know how to enjoy themselves. And they love preparing for their favorite day of the year.

How does a child respond to a sudden diagnosis of type 1 diabetes?

Through Andrew's eyes, you'll get a firsthand look at the symptoms, diagnosis, and everyday routine of type one.

At 4 years old, he manages his new responsibility while still managing to enjoy everything a kid his age should.

The fun rhyme and playful scenes make this book accessible, not only to diagnosed children, but to the family members, friends, and classmates looking for an inside look into T1D.
