About this listen

Meet Tom. Or Dr O’Grady, as he used to be called. When you pass him on the street, most people don’t even give him a second glance. You see, Tom isn’t living his best life. Burdened by grief, he’s only got his loyal dog, Bette Davis, for company and a rucksack containing his whole world.

Then there’s Ruth and her son, DJ, who no longer have a place to call home. But Ruth believes that you can change the world by helping one person at a time - and Tom needs her help.

There are a thousand ways to find your home - you just need to be brave enough to look for them.

Don’t Judge a Book by its Cover!

This is one of those books that grabs you from the moment you start reading right through to the end. A feel-good story that’s Very easy to listen to. I didn’t want it to end. The narrators were very good as well.

Brilliant

Brilliant in every way. A thoughtful book. It reminded me to never judge a book by it's cover.
