Jason and Billy are forever friends. They do everything together-until Thanksgiving break one year, when Jason doesn't come back to school. Billy tries to visit his friend, but he's turned away at the door. Jason can't have visitors because he's sick. He has a disease called cancer. Billy doesn't understand why Jason doesn't answer their clubhouse messages anymore, or why he can't go to visit his best friend. But he knows that Jason needs his friendship and love. With the help of family, friends, and his community, Billy shows what being a best friend really means. Every year, over 10,000 children are diagnosed with childhood cancer. Talking to kids about what that means is important, but it can be difficult, too. The Boy in the Golden Cape is a tool to help parents navigate that challenge. It approaches the subject in a child-friendly manner, while stressing the importance of compassion and acceptance.
