Well I can see why kids love this, and I enjoyed reading this in 60 minutes. Love children's lit that takes the opportunity to challenge 'the norm' and allow feelings etc to be dealt with.

The Silver Lining: An Insightful Guide to the Realities of Breast Cancer
by Hollye Jacobs
I enjoyed this book, and found it gave hopeful insights into what to expect following the authors desire to hope for the best but prepare for the worst. I like her practice of seeking 'silver linings' every day rather than 'woe is me', a...
