O menino que não fazia xixi (The boy who didn't pee) is a book about the donation of life.

We have two independent stories that meet each other. On one side, a brave boy with no kidney is facing the particular battles of those needing dialysis therapy. On the other, a kidney is lost because his best friend is gone.

And in the middle of it all, a family that, despite the pain of loss, says yes to organ donation and provides a transformative meeting between the two main characters.
