Bobby in Search of a Birthday by Lebbeus Mitchell audiobook. Genre: family Bobby North is five years old, an orphan with a big question in his heart. After seeing another child celebrated with cake, gifts, and attention, Bobby realizes there is something he has never had: a birthday. But if you have grown up without one, where do birthdays come from, and how do you find yours? Taking the idea very literally, Bobby sets out on a strange, earnest quest to search for his lost birthdays, stepping carefully along roads and through new places as if the answer might be lying on the ground, waiting to be discovered. His adventure carries him from the routines of the Home into the countryside, where a lively puppy becomes his first real companion and where he meets two unforgettable grown-ups: a warmhearted man with a pocketful of quarters and a gentle woman who seems to understand exactly what a lonely child needs. As Bobby tries to make sense of the rules of families, celebrations, and belonging, his simple search becomes something larger - a test of trust, kindness, and whether a child can claim joy that feels meant for someone else.
