Day breaks over the town. Wake up, everybody! Its time to go to school. It's time for the old man to get up, too. The night was icy and he's hungry. His name? He no longer knows ... This is the story of a person with no job, no family, no home - nobody, who can't even remember his name. But his day changes when he is noticed by a child.

The Old Man shares a day in the life of a homeless man. The highlight of his day is when a little girl gives him a sandwich.

The story opens up a world of the homeless to children with simple illustrations and simple text. The story is a powerful one.
