Ross Molloy just wants to be normal. He doesn't want to lose his hair, or wear a weird hat, or deal with the disappearing friends who don't know what to say to 'the cancer kid'. But with his recent diagnosis of a rare eye cancer, simply blending in is no longer an option. Ross - and his friends and his family - all need to work out how to deal with this devastating challenge that Life has thrown down. Maybe Batpig can come to the rescue?

Based on Rob Harrell's own real life experience of eye cancer, and including amazing comic-strip artwork, this poignant and authentic novel is unforgettable, hilarious and uplifting.

Reviews
Terrific . . . Harrell never downplays or sugarcoats the gravity of his hero's situation . . . The novel's irreverence is its strong suit * New York Times *
WINK has all the freshness and pitch-perfect narrative voice of a Louis Sachar story, with its own unique warmth and wit -- Joanne Owen
