Publisher's Synopsis
Meet Strawberry & Cracker, Twins with Fetal Alcohol Syndrome who live with their Grandma. On International FASD Awareness Day, Grandma encourages the twins to advocate by sharing their FASD feelings. With her help, the twins write to everyday people in their community, those unfamiliar with the signs and symptoms of FASD. In doing so, Strawberry and Cracker convey the challenges of FASD and garner support for all children with FASD. Happy to be advocates for their cause, the twins share their feelings with a list of locals including a sour server at a local café, a lifeguard who needs a lesson in compassion, an unpleasant uncle, a shocked shopper, and a troubled teacher. Grandma cannot help shedding a tear of pride when the twins agree to advocate and share their feelings. This special International FASD Awareness Day edition is designed for children ages 5-12. Also available in the series: The School Day, Fidget! The Birthday Bash, and The Twins Cause Havoc!
