- Synopsis
- Back Cover: "This novel is inspired by the major motion picture that chronicles the life of a boy with terminal brain cancer who copes with the disease by writing letters to God. When interim postman Brady McDaniels finds Tyler Dougherty's first heaven-bound letter, he simply sees it as another annoyance during a really bad day. Unsure of what to do with the letter, he shoves the letter in his pocket and forgets about it. That night, he finds the letter and follows the advice of his bartender to drop off the letter at a church. He meets the church pastor, who prays for Brady and encourages him to follow through on his 'mission from God.' Over time, Brady befriends Tyler and his family. Tyler's mother, Maddy, is angry with God over her husband's untimely death, and her faith is further shaken by her young son's illness. Ty's brother, Ben, struggles not only with the natural trials of being sixteen, but also his own anger over his father's senseless death and Ty's illness that consumes his mother's attention and the family's limited financial resources. When all hope seems lost, Brady reads Tyler's letters and discovers the power of his talks with God. Letters to God is the story of laughter, love, and triumph. Most of all it is a saga of hope-in all circumstances-the kind of hope that is found in a simple, childlike friendship with God."
