Critter's Choice Cherrie Adams

A stunning fable about life and death and what it means to choose. Cherrie Adams lovingly pays tribute to her late son, accompanied by full colour illustrations by Lucinda Gregory.




'I want to go down there. I want to be a human boy.' A long slender finger was pointing in the direction of a place far, far away. Beyond the clouds, through the darkness and into the light, where I knew that a small blue-green planet sat proudly in the infinite vastness that enveloped it.




EARTH.




The most challenging, yet the most loving of all the destinations...




Critter has come to Earth by accident. He has lived with the fullness and stubborness of his heart but now faces his biggest challenge.




... as these words escape my mouth, I feel the full weight of their meaning. I am 26-years-old with an unacceptable medical diagnosis, but I have HOPE.




As Critter writes his Wish List, memories of his past come like a movie reel. He knows that he is strong enough to live and has so much support and love around him. What is his Life's Mission and what choices are left to him?




This is the story of real life Critter, who was given the devastating diagnosis that lead to his untimely death at age 26. Part fable, part biography, Critter's Choice will have you thinking about life, death, family and what it all means to you - a beautiful portrait of what it is to live in the fullness of your heart and that you are strong enough to live it.
