Description
Tatenda says 'Thank you' every day, whenever he can. 'Thank you' to Mum for making his breakfast, 'Thank you' to the post lady who delivers the letters, 'Thank you' to his teacher and 'Thank you' to the shop assistant.
But lately it seems that everyone's heads are too foggy with worry to hear him. So Tatenda says an extra-big, extra-special 'Thank you'... and this time, it cheers up the whole community!

About the Author
Joseph Coelho is an award winning poet and performer from London, although he now lives by the sea. In 2019 he won the Independent Bookshop Week Picture Book Award for If All the World Were. He won the 2015 CLPE CLiPPA Poetry Award with his debut poetry collection Werewolf Club Rules. His debut Picture Book, Luna Loves Library Day was voted one of the nations favourite picture books by a survey led by World Book Day. His other poetry books include How To Write Poems and A Year Of Nature Poems.
Sam Usher spent most of his childhood reading, drawing and forgetting to do his schoolwork. His debut picture book, Can You See Sassoon?, was shortlisted for the Waterstones Children's Book Prize and the Red House Award. He has since illustrated We are Not Frogs by Michael Morpurgo (Barrington Stoke), Refuge by Anne Booth (Nosy Crow) and written two of his own stories: Snow and Rain (Templar Publishing). He lives in London, where he enjoys trespassing and playing the piano.
