This novel describes the inhabitants and escapades of the Woodlands Nursing Home residents. I found it poignant and whimsical, engaging and comical - all rolled into one.

Through the eyes of Hattie and Walter, we meet the staff and fellow 'inmates' and share their adventures over time as small things become paramount and love blossoms in the most unexpected way.

I recommend this book to readers who value a pleasant read with deep insights into the human soul.
