Children’s Food Allergy Books

*UPDATED FOR 2021

Children’s Books Discussing Food Allergies

With the rise in food allergies, especially among children, there is also a growing number of authors including food allergy themes in children’s books. Children can read stories about other kids – or bugs or monkeys in some cases – navigate play dates, parties, and school with peanut, dairy, or multiple allergies. Not only are these books fun to read with your food allergic child but these stories have a theme of inclusion and compassion wonderful to share with friends and classmates.

Check out some of the food allergy themed books, and movies, below. Many of these were written by food allergy parents and a few of them give back to different food allergy research groups upon purchase.
