Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

YA-Five teens with cancer, their families, and best friends are interviewed about the affects the disease has had on their lives. Both fears and realities concerning relationships and chemotherapy are addressed with frankness. Both patients and their loved ones should be comforted by the similarities of experiences shared. The issues addressed are on target. Students seeking information for reports and general readers are provided with an opportunity to achieve a deeper understanding of what living with serious disease is like for all concerned.
