Getting a Grip on Diabetes: Quick Tips & Techniques for Kids and Teens

A book for older kids and teens with diabetes written by two teens -- brothers Spike and Bo -- who have lived successfully with diabetes since they were 6 and 7 years old. Now college students and athletes, they have lots of useful advice for being cool while staying healthy with diabetes.

There are also helpful "What the Doc Says" boxes interspersed with the text to provide sound medical advice in easy-to-understand language.
