The Day We Forgot to Smile is a powerful collection of true-to-life stories capturing the quiet battles, hidden heartbreaks, and small triumphs that shape a family growing up in 1970s Bushwick. Through vivid scenes of brotherhood, survival, faith, and the search for joy in hard places, Anthony Owens takes listeners back to a childhood lived between danger and hope. These stories honor the resilience of a mother who carried the weight of the world, two boys who learned to protect each other, and a neighborhood that tested everyone it touched. Raw, intimate, and deeply human, this audiobook reminds us that even in the darkest seasons, there are moments of sweetness worth holding on to.
