I can’t say enough about this book.. I was 16, in my grade 11 English class in 2015.. we were reading different graphic novels and this book changed my life to say the least. Halfway through reading this book, his story affected my life so drastically. I was in the same position as David, he had a growth on his neck in the same place I had one.. after reading more and more I found out why, I freaked out and made my parents take me to the doctor. It was true, I had cancer just like him, in the same spot, but a different kind. If it wasn’t for this book, I wouldn’t be here today. I was diagnosed with stage 3A Hodgkins Lymphoma and went through 4 rounds of aggressive chemotherapy. What helped me through this was my teacher sending David small an email about my story and how reading this novel saved my life. I began to contact david my self, he was with me through it all. He was so supportive and his kind words will always stick with me. If you haven’t read this book yet, please do. Always trust yourself, if your body is not right, go to the doctor and fight for your health and your life. A special thanks to David small and my wonderful English teacher. I wouldn’t be here today without you guys!
