Full description

Let me introduce you to our son Michael, a beautiful boy with a heart of gold and a smile for everyone. He spent the last four years of his life in hospital fighting various infections and desperately needed a bone marrow donor. Unfortunately we couldn't find one for him and he ran out of time. He was only 21 when he died but he loved life with all his heart and never gave up the fight. This is a book dedicated to his memory with stories of him growing up with his brother Steven at the start of the millennium in a Sussex village by the Sea. From the day he was born to the day he left us, he lived a life full of fun and adventure.

The book has 113 chapters, 175 pages with over 400 individual illustrations hand-drawn by me, his dad, in pencil, watercolour and acrylic from original photos, ideas and sketches printed in full colour. Each chapter tells a little adventure from his life from a close encounter with a billy goat to being chased by a scarecrow over the Sussex Downs, all lovingly told with text and pictures.

Designed by Michael's Dad in west sussex
