Description
In 2020, during the lockdown where we all stayed home, we planted the seed of better things to come. We filled our windows with rainbows, cars didn't block up the roads, we learnt our neighbours names and said hello and nature returned to our gardens, parks and cities. This lyrical, rhyming picture book explores the sacrifices made by people across the world during the global Covid-19 pandemic, but looks with hope to the future, when the seeds we planted will unfurl and flower.
Author Biography
Frances is a former primary school teacher who first realised her love for writing with the poem, My Dad's Milkfloat when she was six. She is a trained children's literacy specialist and winner of the Bloomsbury and National literacy trust short story prize 2017. Her debut books, Love you Always and What will you Dream of Tonight? were published by Nosy Crow in Autumn, 2019. She lives with her family and a big-eared dog in Nottinghamshire. And when she is not writing, you'll find her in the forest playing dragons with her daughters.
