I Can Survive

Much more than a book about combating cancer, the poetry, pictures, optimism, and humor in this beautiful source of support and inspiration reminds people to make each day count and will speak to anyone experiencing a life crisis. Written in a children’s storybook format that is appropriate for any age, the bright illustrations and punchy prose takes an optimistic view that gently yet positively encourages those who are struggling with illness and the people who love them most to appreciate the small, but meaningful things in life.
