Bookroo's summary

A young boy faces the daunting challenge of cancer, learning it's a battle not of blame but of resilience. As his world shifts, he finds solace in the constants of life and the unwavering support of those around him. Will he find the strength to fight with his newfound understanding and the love that surrounds him?

From the publisher

When a young boy finds out he has cancer, he learns a lot right away. He learns that cancer is something you fight, and that cancer isn’t anyone’s fault—especially not his. He discovers that many things change with cancer, but some of the most important things stay the same. He also learns that having cancer is easier when everyone around him wants to help him fight.
