The unforgettable, highly acclaimed story about surviving middle school with an unthinkable cancer diagnosis—now in paperback

Trying to be a normal seventh grader is hard enough, but now Ross Maloy has to deal with losing his hair and wearing a weird hat and friends who are disappearing because they don’t know what to say to “the cancer kid.”

This novel, based on Rob Harrell’s own experience with cancer as an adult and interspersed with comic panels of Batpig, is the hilarious and poignant story about finding music, magic, and laughter, even in difficult times.
