A graphic novel for ages 8 to 12 that tells the true story of the life-saving discovery of insulin

Readers will want to dig deeper into this true story of canine heroes and lifesaving science. -- Kirkus Reviews

In 1921, Frederick Banting was a young doctor with an idea: could the mysterious secretions of the pancreas be used to treat diabetes? We now call this substance insulin, and its life-saving discovery was an impactful milestone in medical science.
