They will be intrigued with the ambulance, the transport used by the children to ferry the food to their neighbours, the lack of plastic tubs and containers, and equally delighted with images of Mxry children looked one hundred years ago. In French's story she draws on the efforts of her great grandmother, galvanising the children to supply food to those in need in their community.
They picked the food from neglected gardens and trees, fed the lambs, collected eggs from chook houses, taking it back to her to cook into soups and food parcels, ready to be cycled out and left on front porches for those in quarantine. Readers will marvel at the self sacrifice of these families one hundred years ago and be equally impressed with communities' responses to COVID 19, able to share stories of what happened in their neighbourhoods.
This beautiful book, extolling the positive community acton which happened during the Spanish Flu, will ignite readers' interest in keeping alive the neighbourliness which occurs during COVID 19, so reviving the feeling of friendliness needed when a whole country is in quarantine.
