Description

'Each and every single one of the 100 plus children I have cared for over the past 62 years are very much in my heart.' It is 1945, the war is finally over and victory marches fill the streets of London.

Brenda and her friends, happy that at long last the war is over, hope that they'll soon leave the days of rationing and worry behind.

Before long Brenda's skills as a real life Mary Poppins are in demand again.

Moving from house to house, Brenda never stays long, but just enough time to sprinkle a little magic and happiness. Word quickly spreads of this wonder nanny, who gets up to feed fretful babies in the middle of the night, who delivers quiet wisdom, and calmly restores order and happiness.

Facing tragedy in her own life, Brenda never gives up on her quest to help the most troubled homes, changing hundreds of children's lives forever.

TUPPENCE FOR PAPER AND STRING is a warm, uplifting and incredibly moving tale of a 1950s nanny, and her determination to give the children in her care the best possible start in life.
