Ella the Elephant loves parties - balloons, games, and cake! But having food allergies means she must be extra careful. When Ella forgets her plan for just a moment, she learns how important it is to Check, Carry, and Tell. With help from her friends, family and teachers, Ella discovers that allergies don't have to stop her from having fun, feeling safe, and being brave.
Alan “Lee” Brown is a registered nurse, father, and children’s book author dedicated to helping kids and families navigate health challenges with compassion, clarity, and hope. With more than a decade of experience in emergency and critical care nursing, he has seen how confusing and overwhelming a new diagnosis can feel for both children and parents. His writing reflects a passion for turning moments of fear into opportunities for understanding, empowerment, and connection.
As the creator of the Life Beyond Labels Stories series, Lee combines medical accuracy with heartfelt storytelling and gentle watercolor illustrations. His books, Georgia Has Her First Asthma Attack, Riley Learns About Diabetes, Axel the Axolotl Feels Overwhelmed, and Ella the Elephant Explores Allergies, help children recognize their experiences, learn practical coping tools, and feel less alone. Each story is designed not only for kids but also as a shared resource for parents, teachers, and caregivers to spark meaningful conversations.
Lee lives in Ferndale, Washington, where he finds joy in outdoor adventures, boating, and creative expression. Most importantly, he is a devoted father of three, whose children inspire his stories. Through nursing and authorship, Lee shows families that a diagnosis is not a limit, it’s a chance to learn, grow, and discover strength together.
