Meet Terry Fox / Elizabeth MacLeod ; illustrated by Mike Deas.
In Meet Terry Fox, the legendary story of how Terry Fox came to run the Marathon of Hope is chronicled: his love of sports as a child and teenager; his devastating bone cancer diagnosis; the hospital stay that inspired him to do something to raise awareness about this disease; the poignant moment he dipped his artificial leg in the waters of St. John's, Newfoundland; and the heartbreaking moment he ended his run. This was also the moment his truly inspiring legacy began.
