Description - Jake Bailey: What cancer taught me by Jake Bailey

Teenager Jake Bailey's inspirational account of overcoming cancer.

'None of us get out of life alive, so be gallant, be great, be gracious, and be grateful for the opportunities you have.'

Jake Bailey's inspirational end-of-year speech as head boy at Christchurch Boys' High School was delivered from a wheelchair just one week after he was diagnosed with the most aggressive of cancers. As he lay in hospital fighting to stay alive, his speech grabbed headlines around the world.

Jake's cancer, and that speech, became the start of a bigger journey that continues today. In this remarkably honest account of his illness, treatment and recovery, Jake shares all that the experience has taught him. His book is an uplifting call to action for people of all ages.
