My Mother's Book,

This review is from: Crossing the Chemo Room (Paperback)
Hello, Jessica Williams here. I am 13 years old now and just re-read my mother's book "Crossing the Chemo Room." I understood it a lot better this time. I felt like I was walking around in my mother's shoes, going through cancer with her. The book solved all my questions about why my mother would come home with no hair when I was four years old. I appreciate my Mom now and would recommend this book for anyone who wants to understand people better (especially those going through cancer or something like it).

Like a Window,
By Kath (Australia) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Crossing the Chemo Room (Paperback)
I am from Australia. I met Lonna Lisa Williams while on holiday in New Zealand. She shared her cancer survival books with me. I read both "Crossing the Chemo Room" and "I Saw You in the Moon" in 3 days. I felt like I was looking through a window into someone else's life, and her life was like my own.

This review is from: Crossing the Chemo Room (Paperback)
Lonna's book is easy to read. She slides right into the subject. The beginning of her life was like mine--a familiar situation. She made something out of it.--Nina Corchoran
