Ross seems like your average 11/12 year old kid, except he’s got eye cancer.
The introduction is well written, provides a good background to the story and engages you.
The theme is definitely not an easy one, but so far it’s been managed well, clearly explained and pitched at the right level.
I’d be happy for my 11 year old to read this and I think that the cartoons support and help to break up what could otherwise be a very sad & scary topic. Well pitched, well written & definitely enhanced by the cartoons. En pointe!
