He tells her about the time in 1962 that he met a girl on the number 88 bus with beautiful red hair just like hers. They made plans for a date at the National Gallery art museum, but Frank lost the bus ticket with her number on it. For the past sixty years, he's ridden the same bus trying to find her, but with no luck. Libby is inspired to action and, with the help of an unlikely companion, she papers the bus route with posters advertising their search. Libby begins to open her guarded heart to new friendships and a budding romance, as her tightly controlled world expands. But with Frank's dementia progressing quickly, their chance of finding the girl on the 88 bus is slipping away. More than anything, Libby wants Frank to see his lost love one more time. But their quest also shows Libby just how important it is to embrace her own chances for happiness-before it's too late-in a beautifully uplifting novel about how a shared common experience among strangers can transform lives in the most marvelous ways"-- $c Provided by publisher. 650 0 $a Buses $z London $z London $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Friendship $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Dementia $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Life change events $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Older men $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Strangers $v Fiction. 650 0 $a Large type books. 651 0 $a London (England) $v Fiction. 650 7 $a FICTION / Women. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a FICTION / Humorous / General. $2 bisacsh 650 7 $a Large type books. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00992678 655 0 $a Large type books. 655 7 $a Large print books. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Romance fiction. $2 lcgft 655 7 $a Humorous fiction. $2 lcgft 830 0 $a Wheeler large print hardcover series. 941 $a 1 $n 1 945 $a lpt 952 $l MXPG943 $d 20231214125720.0 $n 31 $p 31 LP copies 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=424F92D0142511EE8E0ED416233FDB2A 994 $a C0 $b IOZInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
