Just Benny: Can he ever be something more?
About this audiobook
To his mother, he’s her precious baby, forever in need of protection. To his sister, he’s ‘Pestie’, the kid who destroyed her happy childhood. To his classmates, he’s the quiet loner plagued by seizures. To his father, he’s barely visible; a constant disappointment.
Caught in a web of insecurity, Benny defines himself by his illness and the damage it’s wrought on his mind. But is he truly rubbish at everything? Or could he be worth loving?
Join Benny on a poignant journey of self-discovery as he seeks to understand his own worth. What will it take for him to break free from his labels and embrace the person he truly is?

About the author
Alex Banwell lives in the beautiful Forest of Dean with her husband, Jonathan.
As a child, she made up stories on the swings at the park. Later, she began writing them down, firstly on a Perkins Brailler, then later on a typewriter, and finally a laptop computer.
In 2021, she felt led to take the plunge, adapting some of her earlier writings into a full-length novel. It began as an experiment, a secret project between her and her Saviour. She had no idea it would lead to where she is now, a published author of Contemporary Christian fiction.
