Life's like that, not a race but full of challenges and hope. Passing the Baton contains exquisitely written short stories from the real world, experiences with which readers can relate - old age, youngsters, drink problems, heartaches... universal human dilemmas.
There's elderly George, living in 'cloud cuckoo land'. Ethel, such an old dear, but was that pigeon alive when she put it in the microwave? And 'orrid little Tommy, fed on fast food while his mother loses herself in DVDs.
Thought provoking, but with flashes of humour and interlinking amusing short dialogues. 'Fear and giggles all beaten together and ready for the oven.'
