This story is about a little boy named Brian and his brother Jamey who has cancer. Brian feel jealous that all his parents attention is going to Jamey and they never have time for him, but in the end they will need Brian’s help more than anything. This is a good story for younger ones to help understand cancer or sickness a little.
