It Belongs to the World: Frederick Banting and the Discovery of Insulin
The inspiring story of Frederick Banting, who discovered insulin. His historic contributions to the medical field, and selfless sale of his patent for just one dollar, changed the course of patients managing diabetes forever. Ideal for diabetic children and their families, readers who love biography and science, and fans of Digestion! The Musical.
Frederick Banting was a shy boy who loved to care for the animals on his family farm. When they were sick, he searched for ways to make them better.
When Frederick grew up, he remained curious about how to treat and cure illnesses, so he became a doctor and a teacher. After teaching his medical students about diabetes, his curiosity led him to discover insulin, which saves millions of lives worldwide today. Frederick could have gotten rich from his discovery, but he sold his formula for only a dollar, saying, “Insulin does not belong to me. It belongs to the world.”
With bright, cheerful illustrations and informative back matter about insulin and diabetes, It Belongs to the World is an inspiring story of a curious boy who grew up to change medicine and countless lives for the better.
