Lenny's Book of Everything


















Lenny's mom has always known something wasn't right and when her brother just starts growing and growing her fears are confirmed.  But Lenny and Davey have a really special relationship that centers around their fascination with the build it yourself encyclopedia that they won.  Lenny becomes fascinated with beetles, Davey wants to run away to Alaska and loved birds like falcons.  As Davey's issues progress - tumors, surgery, radiation, blindness, and the stress that the giantism puts on his body - the family grows closer together and discovers the community willing to help.

So darn sad...  some of it was really cool, but so sad.
