Book Synopsis

What do superheroes, Spam, "The THING?" Yoda, snipe, Jell-O, flatulence and cancer all have in common?Until now, not much. But, "Flying with Scissors: A Different Perspective on Childhood Cancer" changes all that by weaving these and other unlikely topics into a totally unique look at childhood cancer and the kids who have moved beyond the illness. Having trained under the greatest guru of all-life—these kids are set on reminding us that the world is not made up of problems, but of dreams, hope, and triumph. Hilarious and heartfelt, "Flying with Scissors" takes the personal experiences and insights of children who have battled cancer and turns them into universal truths that relate to each of us. It provides a non-traditional look at a typically solemn topic. "Flying with Scissors" is a resource and companion for anyone close to a child going through the cancer experience. Possibly more importantly, "Flying with Scissors" provides guidance for all of us, valuable insights for living life-every, every day. And, like DC Comics used to say, "It's more fun than a barrel full of genetically-altered winged monkeys!"
