Gryphon Cross

All his life, Beppi was told that he was going to die.
But that is not stopping him from enjoying what he loves most: his friends, school and peanut butter sandwiches. By treating each day as his last, he thought it would be less painful to know about his terminal condition.
When the famous performers called the Taronga Troops came to town, Beppi would do anything to reunite with his long-lost family. However, a dark secret not even Beppi knew could strain the relationship he would once dreamed of.

Between school and family, on top of his incurable disease, the young Tasmanian devil will have to find a way to make them smile, even if it will cost him his own life.
