Anne Booth has had all sorts of jobs, including washing up in a restaurant, working as a tour guide in a haunted almshouse, bookselling, teaching English in Italy, lecturing at university and being a long-term carer for her elderly parents. She has published 25 children's books and Small Miracles is her first novel for adults. All her childhood and teenage years she wanted to be a nun, and although she has ended up happily married with four children, she still feels inspired by the many kind nuns and religious Sisters she has met.
With gentle humour, and surprising twists and turns, this is just the book we need in these difficult times. I didn't want it to end. * Katie Fforde * Charming, witty and warm, Small Miracles is a gentle gem of a novel, a cheery balm in troubling times -- AJ Pearce, bestselling author of Dear Mrs Bird Heart-warming and quirky, with a cast of lovable characters...Just wonderful. I loved it. -- Jill Mansell Charming, witty and intricately plotted...celebrates the uplifting power of love * The Tablet * What a joy! Small Miracles is warm, compassionate, and sees the good in everyone. I loved it, and I recommend it to anyone who wants to be reminded of what a kind place the world can be. -- Stephanie Butland
