The hope of elephants  Cover Image Book Book

The hope of elephants / Amanda Rawson Hill.

Summary:

Told in blank verse, twelve-year-old Cass struggles to cope with her father's recurring cancers that have dominated her whole life, with the knowledge that he is likely to die soon because the latest recurrance is worse--and with the possibility that she may have inherited the genetic disease, Li Fraumeni's Syndrome, that causes the cancers. -- Provided by publisher.
