“Gluten Free is Part of Me” by Laurie K. Oestreich Will Be Showcased at the 2024 Frankfurt Book Fair

The self-publishing and book marketing company ReadersMagnet will exhibit Laurie K. Oestreichs Gluten Free is Part of Me at the 2024 Frankfurt Book Fair. The book event will occur on October 16-20, 2024, at the Messe Frankfurt, Ludwig-Erhard-Anlage 1, 60327 Frankfurt am Main, Germany.

From seasoned publishing experts to talented authors, the 76th edition of the Frankfurt Book Fair, also known as Frankfurter Buchmesse, provides an unparalleled opportunity to interact with industry leaders and critically understand the ever-evolving publishing landscape. As the largest book fair in the world, it continues to be a significant gathering for the global literary community.

Gluten Free is Part of Me is a book designed to empower young children diagnosed with celiac disease. It follows a young girl who describes what it is like living with celiac disease. While it can be challenging for her to have to monitor what she can and cannot eat, and while she sometimes wishes that the condition would go away, she develops confidence in her ability to use strategies to stay healthy and educate those around her.

Through charming poetry and delightful illustrations, Ms. Lauries book aims to provide children with the words to articulate the difficulties of living with this condition. By portraying celiac disease as just one aspect of their identity rather than a defining factor, the book encourages children to realize that their diagnosis should not hinder them from pursuing their dreams and being authentic.

Gluten Free is Part of Me by Laurie K. Oestreich is available on Amazon, Barnes & Noble, and ReadersMagnet Bookstore. Interested readers may visit ReadersMagnets exhibit at the 2024 Frankfurt Book Fair at stand 6.0 B11 to check out the authors book display.

Author Bio

Laurie Kronish Oestreich, L.C.S.W., is a child and family therapist in New York City. She wrote this book right after her granddaughter, Zoe, turned two years old and was diagnosed with celiac disease. The book is intended to increase awareness and encourage early diagnosis of celiac disease while also providing young children with the vocabulary needed to begin to understand and explain this condition. Ultimately, the poetic text strikes a balance between acknowledging the realities of celiac disease and celebrating the child as a whole and wonderful person.
