About this ebook
A humorous but deeply moving story about Colin who refuses to believe that his younger brother is dying of cancer and decides to take things into his own hands. Colin decides to go to the top for help, none other than the Queen. Colin's efforts to penetrate the British establishment are hilarious, surprising and doomed to failure, but although Colin can't find a cure for cancer, he does find a way to help some of the new friends he makes, as well as discovering the best thing he can do for Luke.

A amazing touching story when Luke gets cancer and older brother wants to find the 'WORLDS BEST DOCTOR ' to help. So who's better to ask then the queen herself...!

Probably the first crap book I've ever read in life..... Nothing makes sense....... I was practically hurling profanities at Colin's moronic actions. He basically set me on edge throughout the entire book. Like seriously? Getting into so much trouble and resulted in nothing is simply not helping. And I dun get how putting homo and AIDS in the story help set the mood? And for children? Seriously?

It is nice and it deals with a boy on deathbed, the elder brother thinking that it is only the queen that can help heal his brother with the help on her best doctors
