Antoine Gibson's world was filled with basketball games, birthday parties, and big dreams-until everything changed with three words: Type 1 Diabetes. What began as strange symptoms and a terrifying hospital stay turned into a life filled with new challenges, including managing blood sugar, learning to use insulin, and coping with epilepsy. But Antoine didn't give up-he got creative. With the unwavering support of his mom, dad, and sister, and the strength of his faith, Antoine designed a bold new game plan. No longer able to play contact sports, he picked up a saxophone and discovered a gift that would take him far beyond the boundaries of his hometown in Georgia. From Camp Kudzu to Carnegie Hall, from leading high school marching bands to hiking mountains in Canada, Antoine's journey is a remarkable testament to perseverance. Now a professional musician and global diabetes advocate, Antoine uses his voice, story, and music to inspire children and families everywhere. The New Game Plan is a beautifully illustrated true story written for children ages 6-12 who are newly diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes-or facing any life-altering challenge. It empowers young readers to embrace their identity, trust their inner strength, and see that even with a diagnosis, they can still live out big dreams.
