Description
A moving historical story inspired by the Foundling Museum, Lucky Button is a powerful tale about the power of music. Michael Morpurgo's masterful storytelling weaves together themes of loneliness, friendship and the healing power of art. In this beautifully illustrated book, a young boy struggles to cope with school bullies and caring for his mother, until a mysterious encounter reveals life in the Foundling Hospital in the eighteenth century. The story is a touching exploration of how music can bring people together and help them heal. Beautifully illustrated by Michael Foreman, Lucky Button is a moving and thought-provoking read that will stay with you long after you finish the book.
