Apparently, yes. And now the second one is in bookstores.
I like to believe that the story is fun, but it's the off-the-wall zaniness of the illustrations that I think will really appeal to children. They are wild and crazy and quirky enough to delight kids and adults alike.
In his second adventure, Oscar Ollie Brown tries to figure out why it's not always a good idea to do exactly what his mother tells him to!
For example, when Oscar's mom tires of his endless chatter and tells him to hold his tongue ...
A tongue is rather hard to hold
But boys like me do what we're told
I used both hands and got it tight
And held my tongue with all my might.
Then, as I waited to be praised
My mother said, as though amazed,
"Now what on earth is this about?
Don't put your fingers in your mouth!"
You might think she'd make up her mind!
Not my mom, she's the changing kind!
An interview with Oscar and I can be viewed here, as he talks about his earlier adventures in There's a COW Under My Bed!:

Oscar and I hope you'll enjoy it.
