Publisher's Synopsis
When it became clear that Amanda Webster's 11-year-old son Riche was not just a little too skinny but dangerously ill, people were often surprised. 'Do boys get anorexia?' they would ask. And then, 'How did he get it?' Quick to blame both her husband and herself, as Amanda embarked on the long, agonising process of saving her son's life she found herself battling not just Riche's demons but her own. Brave, honest and ultimately uplifting, The Boy Who Loved Apples is a gritty, moving testament to a mother's love.
