Ideas for discussing the major themes in Charlie Beats Cancer with your children, grandchildren, students, or patients:
FRIENDS: Charlie was blessed with some very good friends – dogs who really loved him.
• Who are some of your best friends?
• What are some ways that good friends can encourage each other when they are having a bad day or aren’t feeling well?
FEAR: Charlie and his family and friends had to overcome fear when he was diagnosed with cancer.
• Are there some fears you are struggling with today?
• When you feel afraid, what are some things you can do to feel better again?
FAITH: Although Charlie Beats Cancer isn’t explicitly a faith-based book, Abbie assures Charlie that everything will turn out alright and says his family and friends will be praying for him.
• When you face a fearful situation in your life, do you find yourself praying it will turn out OK?
• The author of the Charlie Series is a Christian. When he went through cancer, he took great comfort in knowing there was a loving God who was watching over him during treatment. When you pray, who are you praying to? Do you have an assurance that God is looking after you and is listening to your prayers?
