For The Love of Teddi
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago
This is a very touching story of a child who has bravely fought a malignant brain tumor-she passed away, but her story goes on! Children like Teddi are heroic and really set out to prove that in spite of the gravity of the illness the child has, that particular child shows determination to do whatever they can for themselves! That is the main reason for reading about books like this! Dawn E. Lowenstein

Do not pick up this book if you are not prepared to weap...and be inspired as well. One cannot help but be moved by the story of a young girl (Teddi) who faces cancer with the strength and dignity rarely seen in adults--much less children. This book is wonderfully written and I was left wondering how I could feel so sad for the plight of this girl and so inspired at the same time. A must read.
