Best Friends don't ever end

having a best friend who is just like Nana but no cancer makes it easy for me to feel what Cady felt. In this book you will or have read about two best friends, Cady and Nana who fight the one of the biggest challenges for 2 bestfriends! In this book Cady has always been rescued by Nana even when she gets hit by a tennis ball or gets trapped in a skating rink. Nana has always been there but now Nana has cancer and Cady doesnt get rescued. Cady goes over to Nana's house everyday even when she is in the hostpital. This book is a "sob fest" but it is the best book about friends I have ever read! My best firend and I are alot like Cady and Nana. My best friend is always there to rescue me! I can't help wondering when it will be time to rescue her!

True Friendship

If you like to read books of friendship, and reality you should try this book. In this book you will see two very loyal friends deal with life and death. Nana is dealing with cancer, experiencing all of the emotions that go with a life threatening situation. Cady, her best friend is staying by her side, helping her cope with her illness. Cady and Nana show what true friendship is all about, helping each other through profound difficulties. Luckily I've never had to deal with these problems. I felt their friendship helped me see what it would be like to deal with a sad situation. Even though this was a sad book, I really enjoyed it.

truly inspiring

wow....this book is fantastic. i've read it twice. though on a very sad subject, two best friends having to deal w/ a terminal illness, t he story is told matter-of-factly, and u dont end up feeling weepy and depressed at the end. i can completely identify with Cady, who is healthy, and with nana, who has cancer, because they are made alive by ms. warner. GREAT book
