Local Resident Publishes Children’s Book
Letizia Barbetta, of Glenwood Landing, NY, has recently published a children’s book titled “Kylie’s Special Treat” – A Food Allergy Fairy Tale.
It is a sweet fairy tale of a little girl who loves to paint and dreams of the prince she once knew. One day she receives an invitation to make the prince a special treat.
With some magical help, she happily bakes him her favorite dessert. Of course, it doesn’t include any of the foods she’s allergic to.
Kylie shows the reader how she manages her food allergies and goes on to live happily ever after.
The author, Letizia Barbetta, is the parent of a child with multiple food allergies.
She was inspired to write this book after her 6 year old daughter asked her if there was ever a princess with food allergies.
She wrote this book hoping to help food-allergic children feel better about their food allergies and to raise food allergy awareness.
A portion of the proceeds from each book sold will be donated to FAAN for food allergy research.
