Houston-area author, Michele Dykstra, has found her second publication touching hearts everywhere. Her initial publication, The Oil Activity Book, a children's petroleum primer, met with tremendous success selling over 75,000 copies. Her second offering is a situational memoir inspired by a community coming together to support a family in crisis and their newborn daughter. On Saturday, May 1st from 10:00 am-Noon, the author will hold a Book Signing Event sponsored by Kingwood Garden Center located at 1216 Stonehollow Drive in Kingwood. There will be books on hand for sale and personalization.

The Pink Houseguest chronicles the author's call to help and unexpected turn as an "other" to a five-day old baby girl whose mother is battling for her life. The book cover offers "with my friend in a shocking and unimaginable situation, her newborn baby in my arms, I find myself reliving all the joys of motherhood. For this pink baby, and her mother who lies in a coma, journaling about my days with her daughter is my gift to Katy so she doesn't miss out on all the magic moments of her baby's life".

The themes of illness, friendship, tragedy, love and hope are interwoven throughout 212 pages adorned with pictures, photographs, newspaper articles, letters and pink details. While popular in the surrounding area, people from across the country have been sharing their praise of this heart-warning tale. Ms. Dykstra is humbled by the tremendous response she has received and Amazon reviews. "I'm tickled pink that so many people are connecting with The Pink Houseguest. My vision for this completed project was that every page would be so filled with carefully crafted details that you would feel part of this intimate story and sense the loving care on every page".  Paperback and e-books are available through Barnes & Noble or Amazon.
