About the Book

The book is set in the Tetons Mountains and begins with the newly hatched Oscar and his difficulty with relating to his parents, peers, and surroundings because of his unusual handicap. He not only suffers humiliation as a result of it but he faces serious limitations to his normal development and ultimately his ability to survive in the wild. It is about how he compensates for his handicap, the animals and dangers he encounters, and the fact that he is faced with how to survive the unfamiliar bitter cold and threatening winter world.

The artist studied at the Art Institute of Chicago and graduated from Northern Illinois University in 1966. Since then she has been making her pen-and-ink sketches and watercolor paintings across the USA, Europe, the Middle East, and the former USSR.

Her clients include private individuals, corporations, advertising agencies, municipalities, and non-profit organizations. She lives in San Antonio, Texas, with her husband.
