My name is Sam.

I am eleven years old.

I collect stories and fantastic facts.

By

the time you read this, I will probably be dead.

Sam loves facts.

He wants to know about UFOs and horror movies and airships and

ghosts and scientists, and how it feels to kiss a girl.

And because he has leukaemia he wants to know the facts

about dying. Sam needs answers to the questions nobody

will answer.

Ways To Live Forever is the first novel from an extraordinarily

talented young writer. Funny and honest, it is one of

the most powerful and uplifting books you will ever read.
