One Day Soon is a deeply moving, totally engrossing middle grade novel-in-verse. It tells the lived story of Cristy’s family’s journey with genetic Motor Neurone Disease (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), an incurable untreatable neurological condition that quickly steals your ability to walk, talk, swallow and eventually breathe. It’s the story of losing an uncle. It’s about grappling with mortality. And it’s about how ultimately, a few special moments can matter most.
