Chemorella

Written by Katy Franco, a Latina breast cancer survivor raised in Puerto Rico, and her husband Ken Phillips, CHEMORELLA (Spanish title: QUIMIORELA) is a Cinderella story about beating cancer and seeing your dreams come true. The heroine is a young woman who goes from the rags of illness to the riches of health, love and success. The story's happy ending says that everything is going to be okay. Selected as a "Best Book of 2010," CHEMORELLA inspires and uplifts the cancer patient and his or her entire family. Adults and teens laugh at the edgy, parodic humor, while kids are mesmerized by the drawings, the uplifting message of love and acceptance, and the bald, stylish heroine. CHEMORELLA is in English, Spanish and French, and has 28 full color illustrations.
