Beginning with his childhood in Yorkshire in 1920, it follows Tom through his years of service in India and Burma during the Second World War, his family life, and finally his extraordinary decision, at ninety-nine, to walk one hundred laps of his garden for NHS Charities Together. What started as a modest goal of £1,000 grew into a fundraising phenomenon that captured hearts worldwide and earned Tom a knighthood from Queen Elizabeth II. Illustrated throughout by Adam Larkum in warm, engaging artwork, the book distils Tom's eventful life into a story children aged three to seven can follow, while capturing the emotional weight of his achievement. It doesn't shy away from the pandemic context, but frames everything through hope, resilience and togetherness, introducing young children to recent history and real-world heroism. Parents and teachers will find it a natural springboard for conversations about kindness, perseverance and giving back, with lasting value as a bedtime story and classroom resource.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Benefits:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTells the true, inspirational story of Captain Sir Tom Moore for children aged 3-7.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eFully illustrated by Adam Larkum with warm, engaging artwork throughout.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePublished in support of the Captain Tom Foundation.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIntroduces young readers to themes of perseverance, kindness and community spirit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eA lovely springboard for discussions about recent history and real-life heroes.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSturdy hardback format, ideal for gifting and repeated reading.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Author:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\nCaptain Sir Tom Moore (1920-2021) was a British Army veteran who served in India and Burma during the Second World War.
