When Mom gets sick, Billy-Bob discovers that courage comes in many colours.

Deep in the Whispering Woods, Billy-Bob Moss's cozy life changes when his Mom is diagnosed with a tricky sickness. The kitchen grows quiet, the paintbrushes stay dry, and Mom needs lots of rest while her medicine-Tiggle-Tonic-does its difficult work.

Billy-Bob feels scared and worried. But with help from Dad and the wise Dr. Willow, he learns that even during hard times, there are special ways to find calm. Through messy scribbles that become sunshine drawings, Finger-Paint Fridays on Mom's blankets, and healthy smoothies made with love, Billy-Bob discovers that families can colour their way through any storm-together.

A gentle, honest story for children dealing with a parent's illness. This compassionate picture book helps young readers understand they didn't cause the sickness and can't wish it away-but they can find meaningful ways to cope with big, scary feelings and support their loved one.

Perfect for families navigating cancer, chronic illness, medical treatments, and the big emotions that come with them.
