Hi! My name is Claudia Martino, I am twelve years old. My Magic Box is about me and my journey as I fought non-Hodgkins lymphoma TWICE! I wanted to write this book not because of my cancer but because I wanted children from all over that are going through hard times to know that you are not alone and that we must never give up. I hope that my story and my pictures help every child understand that being bullied doesn't just happen to healthy children, it happened to me too. What we look like should never be a reason for anyone to be bullied so stay strong, don't let them put you down and if you don't feel comfortable telling anyone, write it down! Just don't stay quiet because there are always people that care and will help you! I hope that my story inspires other children to share theirs. We can all relate to the feeling of being alone, but guess what, YOU ARE NOT ALONE! If you'd like to share your photos and story with me, please visit my website. www.butterflyclaudia.com Be strong! Never give up and never let anyone put you down!
