Publisher's summary

A new story of common wisdom from the best-selling author of The Traveler's Gift. Orange Beach, Alabama is a simple town filled with simple people. But like all humans on the planet, the good folks of Orange Beach have their share of problems - marriages teetering on the brink of divorce, young adults giving up on life, business people on the verge of bankruptcy, as well as the many other obstacles that life seems to dish out to the masses. Fortunately, when things look the darkest - a mysterious man named Jones has a miraculous way of showing up. An elderly man with white hair, of indiscriminate age and race, wearing blue jeans, a white T-shirt and leather flip flops carrying a battered old suitcase, Jones is a unique soul. Communicating what he calls "a little perspective," Jones explains that he has been given a gift of noticing things that others miss. "Your time on this earth is a gift to be used wisely," he says. "Don't squander your words or your thoughts. Consider even the simplest action you take, for your lives matter beyond measure...and they matter forever." Jones speaks to that part in everyone that is yearning to understand why things happen and what we can do about it.

Like The Traveler's Gift, The Noticer is a unique narrative is a blend of fiction, allegory, and inspiration. Gifted storyteller Andy Andrews helps us see how becoming a "noticer" just might change a person's life forever.

AMAZING!!!

my all time favorite book, the travelers gift is really good too. But this book helps me so much, every time i feel like im down at my lowest, and i feel like my world is falling apart, and i lose sight of things. This book always helps bring me right back up and gets my butt back in gear. I've read this book over a dozen times in the last 2 years, and it always helps give me the perspective in my life that i started to forget. i recommend this book to everyone, all the time when they are struggling and feeling lost. Thank you. You have changed my life for the better.

This book was recommended to my husband and me by someone very special to us. Little did we know what a tremendous gift her recommendation truly was. From the very start this book is captivating. Andy Andrews has a gift for touching your heart and your mind in a way that will leave you forever changed and assured that the best is yet to come!

just a little perspective...

I absolutely loved this book I've read it and listened to it and the whole thing is an eyeopener as far as ideas and maybe we all need to see things from a different perspective

Insightful & Life-Altering

I first read The Noticer many years ago, and it is one of my regular re-reads to help me maintain Perspective on the circumstances in my life. We face many challenges in our lives and may deal with circumstances beyond our control, but our Perspective and choices on how we react are in our ability to control and can make all the difference in the world. This audio presentation is a great way to go over the lessons when you do not have time to read (listen during a commute, while walking the dog, etc). As always with Andy's books: Very Highly Recommended!
