This is Oskar. He is a little boy with 

Asperger Syndrome. Oskar thinks 

very logically because of this 

syndrome. Oskar has been trying to 

make sense of his father's death on 

"The Worst Day". Oskar has also 

been blaming himself for not picking 

up the phone on "The Worst Day".

Oskar was searching around in his 

Father's closet. He accidentally broken a 

vase on the top shelf and found an 

envelope. The word "Black" was written 

on it and there was a key inside it. Oskar 

knew that his father meant for him to find 

the key. Oskar is now on a journey to find 

"Black". Oskar needs to go to everyone in 

New York City with the last name Black.  

At first Oskar is overwhelmed by all of 

his fears. Oskar's list of fears increased 

on "The Worst Day". Some of Oscar's 

fears include planes, tall things, shoes 

without owners, bags without owners, 

loud things, and things you can get 

stuck in. Oskar uses his tambourine to 

keep himself calm.

Oskar's mom knew that Oskar was 

going to everyone named Black. She 

needed to make sure that Oskar was 

going to be safe. She went to 

everyone's house before to prepare 

them before he came by. Oskar's mom 

did this out of love for him and to keep 

him safe.

Oskar faces his biggest fear: 

bridges. Oskar shakes his 

tambourine and overcomes 

and defeats the bridge. Oskar 

is now on his journey.

Oskar meets many people 

during his journey. Oskar's 

secret grandfather helps Oskar 

on his journey. Some of the 

people that Oskar meets are 

happy to help him but others 

tell him to leave.

Oskar learns from his expierences that 

people aren't like numbers but like 

letters. Oskar calculates that it will take 

3 years to complete his mission. He is 

almost hopeless. Oskar then finds a 

telephone number on newspaper that 

his father has circled before he died. 

He calls the number and Abby Black 

(the first person Oskar visited) picks up 

the phone. Oskar meets Abby Black and 

she knows that the key belonged to her 

ex-husband. Oscar finds out from Mr. 

Black that the key accidentally became 

Oskar's father's when he got a vase at 

an estate sale. The key was actually 

give to Mr. Black from Mr. Black's 

father. This whole time the key wasn't 

meant for Oskar.
