Overview

This novel is inspired by the major motion picture, Letters to God, scheduled for theatrical release in spring 2010. Viewers of the film will be eager to read more of this inspiring story. Tyler, a nine-year-old boy, is stricken with incurable brain cancer and begins to write letters to God. He turns his suffering into spiritual lessons for his widowed mother, his embittered adolescent brother, and a troubled postman.

Letters to God probes some of the most important and most-often-asked questions that trouble people of faith: 'Why do we suffer?' 'Where is God?' 'Why do godly, faithful children have to battle cancer?' This inspiring story of hope will help readers from all walks work toward greater understanding of God's presence and care.

After his son's death in 2005, he began his career as a screenwriter. Patrick has written five screenplays and two short-subject scripts in a variety of genres: comedy, drama, thriller, action, and a children's story.

John Perry graduated cum laude from Vanderbilt University, with additional studies at University College, Oxford, England. Before beginning his career as an author in 1997, he was an award-winning advertising copywriter and radio producer. John has published 21 books as an author, collaborator, or ghostwriter. He is the biographer of Sgt. Alvin York, Mary Custis Lee (wife of Robert E. Lee and great granddaughter of Martha Washington), and George Washington Carver. Among other books, he has also written about the 1925 Scopes 'monkey' trial (Monkey Business, with Marvin Olasky, Band H Publishing, 2005) and contemporary prison reform (God Behind Bars, Thomas Nelson, 2006). He is a two-time Gold Medallion finalist and Lincoln Prize nominee. He lives in Nashville.

Chapter One

This morning I woke up excited. My fishing trip with Grandpa was only two days away!

I had to find my special compass that he gave me. It helps us find the hidden lake where we catch the big fish.

So I looked ...

and looked ...

but I couldn't find it.

"You need to clean your room or no trip this weekend," Mom said. But I had to find my compass!

Dad always says that if I have a problem, I should talk to God about it.

"HEY, GOD. CAN YOU PLEASE HELP ME FIND MY COMPASS?"

I waited. Then I looked some more. I still couldn't find it.

(Continues...)

    If you have even an OUNCE of faith...

    ..this book is for you! What a great way to illustrate faith and the need to have it. Communicating with God is a prominent issue in today's society and this book clearly illustrated a way that is both touching and leaves an imprint in your heart. A family with a struggle could never overcome the issues this family faces.. but a family with a struggle AND God can accomplish anything!

    Good read.

    This book is a touching tale of life and tragedy. It was an extremely easy read...plot and general flow of the storyline was very elementary. I would recommend if you want a quick afternoon read. However, if you are looking for a challenge, this is not the book for you. In all fairness, the book's storyline is one that can very much happen to anyone anywhere at anytime. Tugs at your heartstrings!!

    Changed My Life

    This is one of the few books that I have read that has changed my life. This book made me laugh, cry, get angry, and above all trust that no matter the situation in life God is there for you...even if it doesn't make a bit of sense. A must read for anybody and every body...just make sure to have a box of tissues handy.

    Beware

    Not fair that this was purchased and it is not the book I expected it is only 10 pages long rather than the actual book which is 177 pages long. Do not make the mistake or waste your money in buying this one and then have to turn around and pay another 9.99 for the actual book.

    Upset

    I just paid $9.99 for a book I thought was about a movie. But this book is only 10 pages long & I still can't believe I just paid $9.99 for this. Now I have to go & spend another $9.99 for the version that the movie is based on. Ugh!!

    Inspiring book!

    I read this at a time where my faith was a bit shaky and it really strengthened it. Great inspirational book for anyone at all.
    It was such a well plotted story and the story itself was so heartbreaking and compelling.
    Really an amazing book.
