"Oscar and the Pink Lady" is a touching and poetic story-parable, eleven letters to God from a boy named Oscar. Eleven funny, sometimes sad, life-loving messages. A story about the inspiring power of friendship, faith, the value of every passing day and how much love and kindness can fit even a short life.

As soon as its seeds absorb water, it sprouts, shoots, leaves, flowers, seeds appear, then it fades, shrinks and - hop, it's over tonight. Brilliant gift, thank you!"
