Josh Sundquist is like every other nine year old out there… until he discovers that the pain he has in his leg was being caused by cancer.  Throughout the novel you see that Josh is a very happy child, even while having cancer and going through chemo he still manages to smile every day.  After his final cancer surgery to remove his left foot he manages to think with a positive attitude.

After that the rest of the novel is about Joshes journey to becoming a skier.  At times he felt like giving up and others he knew he could do it.

My opinion:

Josh Sundquist is someone who I am glad to have ever learned about. I found him through youtube and then discovered he wrote a book about his childhood and early teen years.  At first I thought it would just be a boring tell-all book but it was truly far from that. Josh Sundquist really makes you want to peruse your dreams.  The strength that he had captures you as you read.  I enjoyed reading his story more then to be expected.
