Diabetes brought big changes for eleven-year-old Adair and his family. He learned to prick himself to test his blood-sugar level and got used to two insulin shots a day.

A true story about a boy who has learned to manage his illness and continues to do the things he loves.

"A useful title for children with this disease and those who want to know more about it." —School Library Journal
