Description
‘A beautiful book about unexpected friendships and daring to dream’ Ruth Hogan
‘About a Boy meets Educating Rita… warm and big-hearted’ Sarah Vaughan
Behind every ordinary day, behind every ordinary story, there’s an extraordinary one just waiting to happen…
Two people.
Simon Sparks hides in plain sight – his astonishing gifts locked deep inside himself, as he dreams of lost potential and extraordinary tomorrows.
Jodie Brook hides behind what you think of her – a single mum who can barely make ends meet. But her dreams are filled with the education she always wanted and discovering a better life for her and her son.
One life.
When Simon and Jodie’s lonely worlds collide, it upends everything. But as it becomes clear they have so much to learn from each other – Jodie can show Simon how to rejoin the world, and Simon can help Jodie prepare for her greatest challenge yet – they begin to realise that life could be so much more.
One ordinary day at a time…

‘It's the best book I've read in ages. If you like Gail Honeyman, you'll ADORE this’ Anstey Harris, author of The Truths and Triumphs of Grace Atherton
