Wow, wow, wow! My friends Mary Alice and Doris highly recommended this book (thank you!)and I must confess it took me toooo long to get to finally read it---along the way---I lent it to a mom and she lent it to her daughter and they CRIED but oh did they love it AND SO DID I!!!! I just love the way Jordan Sonneblick gets it- the right on 13 year old musings of Steven, his fear and anger and his constantly annoying little brother. I couldn't put this book down, polished it off in 2 days and I miss it already. I just loved the way Sonneblick takes leukemia and helps us laugh with Steven's humorous take on girls, Jeffrey, drums and his mom and dad. There were so many times I wanted to read it out loud to whoever would listen---for a great book about family, friends and dealing with cancer- THIS IS A MUST READ! What did I learn---alot about cancer, hospitals, drums and drumming and that being 13 years old has alot of drama goin' on. Now I have to read his other book- The Art of Zen and Faking It.
