5.0 out of 5 stars Spirited
Laughter is what I heard from the bellies of friends to whom I have given this book as a gift. Each page seems to tickle the personality of an event that each person experienced and lived through. People automatically identify with an issue that is presented in a humorous way. Mr. Kalla should be commended for bringing tears of joy rather than tears of sorrow.

1.0 out of 5 stars Was quite boring... sorry...
I'm sorry to say it was quite boring, maybe it's my situation. I just watched my 16 year old go through horrible toxic chemos, in the hospital 5 days at the time and I look for things to make me laugh... this just wasn't the answer for me. The drawings are terrible too. Sorry to be so negative.. look for Jeff Dunham, he is funny, The second dvd... I laughed my socks...

5.0 out of 5 stars 57 Good Thing About Chemotherapy, August 14, 2001

This review is from: 57 Good Things About Chemotherapy (Paperback)
This book offers a rare comedic outlook regarding chemotherapy. If you know someone going through this treatment I highly recommend this book. It will lift their spirits while going through a very uncomfortable situation. The author and artist did a wonderful job creating this book. They made it interactive and the best part allows the readers an opportunity to add to the list from their personal experiences.

5.0 out of 5 stars Helps Raise Your Spirits, October 11, 2005

This review is from: 57 Good Things About Chemotherapy (Paperback)
I found this book in the library at the Cancer Center where I had my chemotherapy for ovarian cancer. I was trying to keep a positive attitude. This book made me laugh and helped raise my spirits. I have one of the cartoons on my desk at work to remind me to think positive about a long term cure. I'm ordering the book now for my niece and her husband, who has cancer.

4.0 out of 5 stars Good funny book, July 25, 2006
This review is from: 57 Good Things About Chemotherapy (Paperback)
This book is a quick read and very entertaining. It is great to laugh out loud and enjoy yourself even when doing chemo. I have passed this on to several people and recommend it to all chemo patients. It helps to laugh and makes it easier to take.

My best friend's father is going through chemo and I sent him this in a care package. It really helped to lift his spirits.

This review is from: 57 Good Things About Chemotherapy (Paperback)
I'm sorry to say it was quite boring, maybe it's my situation. I just watched my 16 year old go through horrible toxic chemos, in the hospital 5 days at the time and I look for things to make me laugh... this just wasn't the answer for me. The drawings are terrible too. Sorry to be so negative.. look for Jeff Dunham, he is funny, The second dvd... I laughed my socks off..he is awesome! I take it with me each time we go to the hospital for some laughs. The second dvd is much cleaner in language than the first, it's really just funnier.. search for him on YouTube and smile and enjoy something in your day... Feliciti

1.0 out of 5 stars 57 Good Things about Chemotherapy, November 1, 2005
This review is from: 57 Good Things About Chemotherapy (Paperback)
I sent it back. This book was not funny and was not professionally done. I purchased a total of 4 books for my neighbor who has cancer and of the 4, this one had the least amount of pages, humour or information and was the MOST expensive! It also had 80 (yes that's EIGHTY) BLANK pages!!! A poor tree had to sacrifice its life for such a sad, sad book.

3.0 out of 5 stars OK, November 25, 2007
By 
This review is from: 57 Good Things About Chemotherapy (Paperback)
This was a good product but wasn't exactly what I was looking for. It was like a picture book for children though dealing with chemo. I was looking for a book for mom because she was going through chemo but this book didn't pertain to her situation at all.
