Beschreibung:
Matilda Tristram studied animation at the Royal College of Art, graduating in 2008. Since then she has worked as a children's writer, lecturer and filmmaker. She was co-writer on two animated BBC TV shows for CBeebies with Ragdoll Productions, The Adventures of Abney and Teal and Dipdap. Dipdap won a BAFTA in the short from category. Her short films have screened at over 30 festivals internationally.
At 31, the author was 17 weeks pregnant and looking forward to having her first baby. Then she discovered she had bowel cancer. This graphic memoir, which is never morose or self-pitying, starts at the moment she was diagnosed and ends when her course of chemotherapy finishes in October 2013.
