About this audiobook
'A story of life, love and hope - the perfect antidote to today's world. Phenomenal'
CLARE MACKINTOSH
The incredible, life-affirming new novel by the author of the Richard & Judy Book Club Bestseller A Boy Made of Blocks for fans of Matt Haig and Jojo Moyes.
Tom, devoted single father to Hannah, is the manager of a tiny local theatre. On each of her birthdays, its colourful cast of part-time actors have staged a fantastical production just for her - a day of wonder. However hard life gets, all Tom wants to do is make every moment magical for her.
Now, as Hannah begins to spread her wings, the theatre comes under threat of closure and the two could lose one another. But maybe, just maybe, one final day of magic might just save them both.
A story about finding joy in everyday life, Days of Wonder is the most beautiful and uplifting novel you'll read all year.
'An enchanting story about family, friendship, love and loss which manages to be both very funny and intensely moving - a rare feat'
