Sinopsis

"For all those finding it difficult: the sun will shine on you again and the clouds will go away. Remember that tomorrow will be a good day."

Written by Paralympian Danielle Brown MBE, and introduced by Hannah Ingram-Moore

Captain Sir Tom Moore captured the hearts of a nation, as he walked 100 laps of his garden to raise money for the NHS. He wished to celebrate many other everyday heroes from this uncertain time, and with his blessing, these one hundred stories make a book of hope for the future.

Featuring well-known stories such as Joe Wicks' family workouts, as well as stories of courage, community, everyday kindness and perseverance, such as:

Dancing binmen
Fancy-dress postal workers
Scientists racing to find a vaccine
Frontline workers who kept us all going

With lively and engaging illustrations, these are stories that will help you hope that tomorrow will be a good day.

Because hope starts with one small step . . .

Inspired by, and with the blessing of, one man and his walking frame, a £1 donation will be made to The Captain Tom Foundation for all hardback print sales in the UK and Ireland. The Captain Tom Foundation was created to inspire hope where it is needed most: combating loneliness, helping those facing bereavement, and supporting hospices - and this book celebrates the spirit of this amazing achievement.

Following the recent announcement that The Captain Tom Foundation is closing all payment channels whilst a Charity Commission inquiry into the Foundation remains open, from 7th July Penguin Books Limited shall hold on trust for The Captain Tom Foundation all charitable donation sums received from the sale of the hard back edition of "One Hundred Reasons to Hope" until such time as those sums can be transferred to the charity.
