Proceeds from the sale of his story on eBay will go towards paying for his heart surgery, which he has undergone successfully. The cost of that, even with insurance, is probably a bomb and I think that it's amazing that Malkolm, at only 9, understands it and wants to help his parents out. eBayers have been tremendously supportive and according to an article, it has already sold 300 copies!

Luna, the title of the short story, was actually written by Malkolm recently at school and has entered it into the yearly writing competition. Well, good luck in winning!
