My favorite thing about the whole book endorsement process is meeting new people. It has been fascinating, and an amazing study in human nature. I love seeing how people respond.
One person who responded with tremendous warmth and kindness is Kairol Rosenthal, author of Everything Changes: The Insider’s Guide to Cancer in Your 20s and 30s. Besides being a fellow cancer survivor, she shares my love of dance as well. It means so much to me that she took her very valuable time to read my work, and she responded with a heartfelt and well-thought out endorsement for Grace: A Child’s Intimate Journey Through Cancer and Recovery.
Kairol told me that she gets inundated with endorsement requests from authors who write about their cancer experience. I can imagine her email inbox exploding. And then I very gratefully acknowledge what she has done for me. Kairol, thanks so much for showing your care for cancer kids in such a beautiful way.
