Local child author Emma Vigrass is returning to two Charleston County Public Library branches on Saturday, September 23!
Emma wrote her own book about food allergy awareness based on her experiences overcoming chronic illness and allergy related challenges.
Her book Kindergarten, Here I Come is about a young girl who is excited to start kindergarten yet is concerned her classmates may not understand how her food allergies and EOE diagnosis impact her daily life.
“I wanted to help other kids like me feel comfortable in new and different settings, and I thought sharing ideas on how we can do this together was a fun way of doing that!” says Emma.
The book empowers children with allergies and disease-related concerns to stand up for themselves and kindly educate others.
You can meet Emma at the following locations on September 23:
9:30 AM at the John's Island Library
11:00 AM at the Main LIbrary
