Just because you feel ordinary doesn't mean you aren't extraordinary to someone else. Sixty-two-year-old Elsie enjoys her custard creams at four o'clock, jigsaw puzzles, and her lavender-scented garden. Ten-year-old Billy, however, would rather kick a ball or watch TV than be babysat by his grumpy neighbor and forced to eat custard creams. They would prefer to avoid each other, but circumstances keep them next door. Unbeknownst to Elsie, Billy is afraid to go to school and has been abruptly woken by his mother in the middle of the night, ready to flee their home. Meanwhile, Billy discovers a rusting red tin buried in Elsie's garden, a secret that could disrupt her carefully organized life and has been dormant for twenty-eight years. This poignant tale resonates with anyone who has felt lonely or feared their broken heart might never heal. Fans of heartwarming stories will find this life-affirming novel captivating, illustrating that happiness is often just a risk away. Readers rave about its emotional depth, praising its ability to evoke tears and uplift spirits simultaneously, making it a memorable and enriching read.
