Summary: Good, but not great
Comment: This book would be helpful to parents whose children are most disturbed by hair loss associated with cancer. In my opinion, it minimized other issues and was not as hopeful in tone as I would have liked.
Rating: 5
Summary: exactly on target for kids 3-9
Comment: My 9-year old son brought this book home from school, saying he had found a book for people like me (going through breast cancer chemotherapy). I read it to my other kids (ages 7 and 3). They especially liked that Sarah got angry about her mother's illness. The book deals frankly with the ever-changing range of emotions that kids go through when their mom is sick. All three of my kids could identify with Sarah at one point or another in the book, and I could certainly identify with the mother! After reading it, both of my sons offered me THEIR baseball caps to add to my hat collection!

Summary: A must read for the children of all cancer patients
Comment: Promises is a wonderfully inspiring story of a young girl who is learning to cope with her mother's illness. This story is so incredibly well written, the reader can share in the young girls anguish as well as her triumph. This story is not only helpful to the children of cancer patients, it also sends a strong message to children not to make fun of someone just because they look different. This story made me laugh, it made me cry, and it made me realize just how trivial lifes little problems really are.
