Through their friendship, the story shows how understanding, compassion, and being there for someone can make a world of difference.This beautifully illustrated book helps children understand brain tumours in an age appropriate way, whether they are experiencing one themselves, know someone who is, or simply want to learn about empathy and supporting others through difficult times. Through Oscars journey, young readers will learn about the challenges faced by children affected by brain tumours, from diagnosis, through treatment and beyond.
