520 _aWhen Ben finds out he has cancer, he discovers that even though many things change, the most important things stay the same, and everyone around him wants to help him fight. The brightly coloured illustrations accompany simple text, following Ben from his diagnoses (an unspecified cancer) to visiting the hospital, to registering all the things that he can still do. Ben is pleased that so many people, from family and friends to strangers, are on his side and supporting him in all sort of ways, including making silly toy dogs to having a money-raising local picnic. The ending of the book is open, not clarifying whether Ben recovers or not, making it particularly suitable for children whose treatment is ongoing or where the outcome is not yet certain. Colour picturebook with short text. Audience: child 4 - 9
