Harry Moseley - Making it Happen (Paperback)

This title presents a young boy's dream of finding a cure for people with cancer, just like him. Told through the eyes of his mother, it is a true and honest account on his positive, cheery, determined and selfless outlook, which inspired and captured the hearts of people all over the world. "The Harry Moseley Story - "Making it Happen"", is a true account of how a 'normal' little boy with big dreams and a selfless, compassionate outlook on life proves that with hard work, determination and a bit of cheek anyone can achieve any goal they set themselves in life. This is an emotional, heart-warming and truly inspirational account of how a little boy's dream of helping others changed the lives of millions and will probably make you take a look at yourself in the process. Even though Harry was diagnosed with brain cancer in 2007 at the age of 7 the book shows how he evolved his simple ideas and philosophy into a global entrepreneurial campaign using all the multi-media tools available to him including his beloved Twitter. The book emphasises that we can all achieve anything in life and "make It happen" if we believe in ourselves, as long as you are committed to your goals and are passionate about your dreams. Harry gripped the nation by making and selling beaded bracelets all by himself, with all the proceeds he raised going to charity. He also organised and arranged to meet CEO's of large organisations and did presentations at school assemblies and at large public events in front of the local and national media talking about his business ideas. All this was achieved through the face of adversity and fighting a dreadful disease himself and with this kind of determination nothing was unachievable for Harry. During his fight against brain cancer Harry befriended many people via his Twitter account including his peers and many famous celebrities from all over the world. When Harry sadly passed away in October 2011 he had raised a staggering GBP 650,000 for his chosen charities but his legacy lives on and his dreams are now starting to become reality thanks to his mum and his army of followers who are kindly organising events in memory of brave Harry. Forewords by Ben Shephard and John Terry.
