Publisher's Summary

With all his family and friends gone, 100-year-old Murray McBride is looking for a reason to live. He finds it in Jason Cashman, a 10-year-old boy with a terminal heart defect and a list of five things he wants to do before he dies. Together, they race against the limited time each has left, ticking off wishes one by one. But when tragedy strikes, their worlds are turned upside-down, and an unexpected gift is the only thing that can make Jason's final wish come true.

A wonderful story!

I had a hard time getting past the narrator voice in the beginning, however the story was so enjoyable I stayed with it. So glad I did. What a treasure this book is. Made me laugh and cry. I wish there were more like this one. I hope they make a movie out of it!

can't get past the narrator

The story might be great, but the narrator can't read. I tried to get past it, but I couldn't get past him. I got to the point where I didn't care who lived or died, I just wanted it to end.

An ok story

The reading was very distracting. I like to finish things so I stayed till the end but it was so uncomfortable.

Great story, not. Great narration

Lovely heartfelt story
Pressed through but the narrative was one of the worst I’ve heard
Mispronouncing words, punctuation off…
But beautiful story

Home Run

What a beautifully written story. I loved the three main characters, Mr McBride, Jason and Teagan. They made me , laugh and cry and see life from a different perspective. I thoroughly enjoyed the adventure.
