I just heard about another book event in Forest Hills this weekend (see Mara Einstein’s lecture at FoHi Library), this one a signing that takes place on Sunday at Church in the Gardens:
Any Day with Hair Is a Good Hair Day: How to Get Through CANCER and Get on with Your Life (Trust Me, I’ve Been There)
by Michelle Rapkin
Jan. 6, 12:15–1:15 p.m.; 50 Ascan Ave., Forest Hills 718.268.6704
Michelle Rapkin, a cancer survivor, has written a book chock full of practical tips for surviving treatment. She writes with a very nice tone, as she gives you help for your body, mind and spirit. Despite the slimness of this volume, it is packed with practical help and resources. She includes a glossary of medical terms, mini-reviews of other cancer books, and links to websites. On the lighter side, Rapkin gives you lists of things to do while you are waiting, feeling rotten, or filing medical papers. This book’s chapters are short, easy-to-read, and well-indexed.
