An Inspirational Story of Caring,
By Cysthe1 (Bettendorf, IA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Willie's Wagon (Paperback)
Cancer is never easy. But when a child's life is changed by the disease, it is often hard to make sense of in a young mind. Gary Metivier has provided a wonderful vehicle for parents who need to help a youthful mind understand what cancer is.
Through the touching tale of Willie and his compassion for a schoolmate, the author teaches us how cancer can change the lives of young people and how kindness can also provide healing. This story is a great read for kids and adults and a great way for parents to bring some understanding to a difficult subject for young people. If your life and the lives of young people around you have unfortunately been touched by cancer in some way, I strongly recommend this book.

touching and practical advice,
This review is from: Willie's Wagon (Paperback)
My children have experienced the loss of loved ones and classmates due to cancer. The first time was a third grader and the most recent a high school sophmore. The author has found a way to relate to the real struggles of a younger child and his frustrations in life and turn them into positive and caring action. My nephew has volunteered at the cancer camp in Iowa City that benefits from the sales of this book. It changed his life enough for him to enroll in medical school with aspirations to become a pediatrician. Great book, great cause. Your purchase of this book will not be regretted.
5.0 out of 5 stars

My husband and I enjoyed this story so much. Willie's transformation from a bored and self-centered little boy to an aware and charitable child is a good lesson for children as well as an entertaining one.
