The Gift
Samantha is a typical third-grade student with one major difference: she has Type 1 diabetes and manages the disease on a daily basis. She uses her knowledge to help her teacher, Mrs. Hunter, recognize she may need medical attention. The Gift draws attention to diabetes awareness for both children and adults of any age.
The Gift was illustrated by Chandra Swope, Joseph Swope’s oldest daughter.
