The Goodbye Cancer Garden
Library Binding
(Av2 by Weigl Sept. 15, 2013)
After Mom and Dad tell Janie and Jeffrey that Mom has cancer, the whole family goes to the doctor to ask questions. "Is Mom better yet?" Jeffrey asks. "Not yet," the doctor says. "But we're working very hard to make her better--probably by pumpkin time." That gives Janie an idea: to plant a vegetable garden. As the garden grows, Mom's treatment progresses...surgery, chemo, head-shaving, radiation...and when it's all done, there are healthy pumpkins and a recovering Mom!
