Summary

The Simple Gift: A Story of Connection and Discovery

My hand in his stops trembling, for a moment.

When the paths of a runaway teenage boy, an old hobo, and a rich girl intersect in an abandoned train yard, each carries their own personal baggage. Over early mornings, long walks, and cheap coffee, they discover that no matter how big or small, it’s the simple gifts in life that really make a difference.

A life-affirming look at humanity, generosity, and love.
