Product Description:
This is a story about what can happen to a man when he does not keep himself clean. People do not need to be able to read in order to understand the story. In the book we follow George’s daily life - at home, at work, on the bus and in the pub. George likes being with people and does not understand why they seem to avoid him. He often feels lonely and unhappy, and sometime feels unwell.
George’s life changes when he is helped to be clean and to wear appropriate clothes. Not only is he happy about the way he now looks and feels, but his work-mates and friends want to be with him. George enjoys their company, and no longer feels so isolated.
“Gives an encouraging message. Overall a unique and personal book from a remarkable woman.”
“Even those who are unable to follow the story may be able to understand some of the pictures, whereas those with greater ability will enjoy inventing their own storyline to accompany the pictures.”
