The Noticer: Sometimes, All a Person Needs Is a Little Perspective.
by Andy Andrews
Thomas Nelson Publishers

I picked this audio up because of the cover.  Nothing fancy, just a simple suitcase.  And that is what the audio is all about.  If we only take the time to notice the things around us, we can be better people.  It is the story of a mysterious man named Jones.  He seems to show up when the people in town are at their lowest.  The story is really a lot of little stories that build the people of Orange Beach, Alabama.  A great read for anyone who needs a little pick me up.
