The memoir isn’t just about ‘adoption’ – it is part fiction – but a unique, great read, with nice visuals, for anyone interested in an immersive reading/watching experience about the challenges of life.

An unusual adoption, a gruesome family discovery, a lonesome journey, a narrow escape at the 7/7 bombings and a life-altering diagnosis are just some of the ingredients in this collection of short stories and illustrations.

This book will lead you on a sometimes heart-breaking, sometimes humorous journey of self-discovery that inspires hope and renewed appreciation for the blessings in life.
