Seven children from Paul Newman's Hole in the Wall Gang Camp - ranging in age from 6 to 19 - share their individual stories of coping with critical illness, as they try to experience life as fully, and normally, as possible. The book describes the children attending school, maintaining friendships, discovering the opposite sex and falling in love amidst hospitals, radiation, chemotherapy treatments and surgery. Their accounts, interspersed with their poetry, are unusually engaging, with each chapter reflecting a very different personality and attitude towards life, illness, remission, religion, families and friends, the future and death.
THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST AMAZING WORKS THAT I HAVE EVER READ! IN THE BOOK, YOU WILL FIND THE STORY OF SEVEN CHILDREN THAT ARE FIGHTING FOR THEIR LIVES IN WAYS THAT MOST OF US CANNOT IMAGINE. THE STRENGH, COURAGE, AND FAITH SHOWN BY THESE CHILDREN ARE AN AWESOME THING TO BEHOLD. I GUARANTEE THAT BY THE TIME YOU HAVE FINISHED READING THIS BOOK YOU WILL DEFINITELY LOOK AT YOUR OWN LIFE IN A NEW LIGHT.
