As soon as this book arrived, I read it from cover to cover, laughing, smiling, tearing up a little bit and wanting to hug this author for sharing her strength through humor. Not 24 hours later, my best friends told me the love of their grandson's life, a very young woman, has stage 2 breast cancer. She's having a tough time. Who wouldn't? I said, "You must give her this book. I just got it and I know it has to go to her." Thanks, Janet Sheppard Kelleher, for sharing your fiesty nature, your strength and your humor to help others kick breast cancer's butt.
This author is so comical. And I love the fact she is looking at Breast Cancer in a new light. I saw her in a meeting I went to. I bought 5 other copies to share with friends
I never thought a book about this frightening disease could be so enjoyable. I had the pleasure and privilege of creating the cover art and content cartoon illustrations for Jan Sheppard Kelleher's Big C, Little Ta-ta. The humor she displays in the delightfully told stories is a true representation of her personality, and I enjoyed creating images to punctuate her humor, as well as working with Jan and her dedicated and talented team. The author is a fun-loving and courageous woman with the rare ability to laugh in the face of adversity and joyfully bring that laughter into others' lives... all of which is reflected in Big C, Little Ta-ta. This is a perfect gift book for breast cancer sufferers and survivors, their loved ones, caregivers and friends. I sincerely hope everyone who reads Jan's stories enjoys them as much as I.
This lovely little Ta-Ta book had me laughing out loud at a very serious subject. I delighted in the author's sense of humor as she faced the struggles. The illustrations were just as funny as the story, making me pause to giggle. This book is perfect for anyone who is facing the big C or know someone who is. It will inspire you, and lift you up while offering insight into the journey of recovery. And this book is not just for Cancer patients, it's a great human interest story, of how one lady chose humor as a healing tool. Great job!
Does the Big C monster leave any of our lives untouched? I've slapped it in the face myself and shared the war with kin and friends. I'm giving a load of these during the holidays. Anyone of us who lives to 90 will still keep this book on our shelf. FUNNY and more. Jan makes me laugh; warms my heart, lifts my hopes, and inspires me to reach, as she has, for the highest possible goals. EXCELSIOR! - mary stripling
I bought Big C, little ta-ta: Kicking Breast Cancer's Butt for my mother who is a two time breast cancer survivor. After my mom was diagnosed with breast cancer for the second time, she needed a pick me up and this book was the perfect medicine.

Janet Sheppard Kelleher is hilarious! She is the only person who can make cancer funny. Kelleher's heartfelt memoir is well written and leaves the reader wanting more stories from this natural story teller. The book makes a thoughtful gift for anyone struggling with a cancer diagnosis. Thank you Janet Sheppard Kelleher for telling your story and making us laugh! Rock on!
