I WANT TO GROW HAIR, I WANT TO GROW UP, I WANT TO GO TO BOISE

In a departure from the material she usually covered in her nationally syndicated column, Erma Bombeck tackles the tough subject of children and cancer. These true-life stories about children fighting cancer--and the families who battle alongside them--are filled with compassion, hope and humor. Barbara Rosenblat gently delivers this touching and vibrantly funny book, totally capturing both its humor and its poignant moments of disappointment and loss. Describing children from infancy to their early twenties who are from all types of families and backgrounds, Rosenblat expresses awe and humanity for their courage. Rosenblat's performance leaves listeners feeling touched and uplifted by the stories of these young survivors and of those not so lucky. A.G.H.
