An old red two-seater sofa sits centre page on a light blue background. On it is a rainbow pillow, and underneath a pair of trainers, some police boots, and a pair of orange fur lined slippers. Title above 'Friends of Dorothy', below 'Sandi Toksvig'.
A light, humorous, and uplifting read.
It is very easy to read with lots of twists, as we learn the life and deeds of Dorothy (who comes with the newlyweds first house).
