Ben is an old broken cuckoo clock that has been long forgotten in a box under the stairs. Feeling unloved and unwanted Ben decides to run away. What happens next could be a simple coincidence, but what if it is part of a bigger plan? Bigger than even Ben could imagine. In this first adventure, Ben finds himself in the unlikely possession of Bertha, an elderly, homeless lady. What will she do with the little, broken clock and how could he be of use to her? This is a story of redemption, giving us a gentle nudge, reminding us that there is goodness all around if only we take the time to look. A heart-warming story for children of all ages and a lovely opportunity to teach them about kindness and second chances.
