About this deal

We're not quite there yet, but have made significant progress compared to when I said to my Play School producers in the early 1980s, 'Why can't we have illustrations with Black, Asian and Chinese characters on the screen? This is based on our National Severe Weather Warnings service, which is a combination of both the impact the weather may have, and the likelihood of those impacts occurring. Much colder and less colourful than Trinidad and getting around London was very different to getting around Trinidad.

I think anyone who has read Coming to England gets the picture and gets the idea about what I'm talking about, but anyone who hasn't lived through the specific experience at the particular time needs some help on details, for example the kind of hats and suitcases people had at that time, or the setting of Southampton Docks in the 1950s. My voyage from Trinidad happened 60 years ago but I remember every detail of it as if it was yesterday. People might think it's easy writing a picture book, but it's not, especially when you've got quite a complicated real life story such as Coming to England. So we're really concerned about making sure that new variants do not come into the UK and that we do have a system that identifies where we have variants of Covid where infection is and we're able to isolate it.For example rain, if its impact could lead to flooding as advised by the Environment Agency, SEPA and Natural Resources Wales flood warnings, or snow. Floella was a hard working person who was brave enough to travel across time zones, spending fifteen days on a boat, whilst doing a handful of chores. The story tells us about the author, Floella Benjamin’s troubles, as she perseveres and one day meets the Queen.

Jacob said “Miss Worrall will like this book because we are learning about different skin colours at school. The drama lacks emotional depth and texture as a whole; Benjamin is told to go back home and often sees signs in windows stating: “No dogs, no Irish, no coloureds” but none of these moments are developed or feel specific enough, though they will doubtless educate a younger audience. You don’t have to take any tests or fill in any special forms to enter the country - even if you’re not vaccinated. Within the North Atlantic Ocean, tropical or subtropical cyclones are named by the National Hurricane Centre when they are judged to have intensified into a tropical storm with winds of at least 65 km/h, (40 mph). In this way the public will be better placed to keep themselves, their property and businesses safe.

I thought she would meet the Queen one day but I would have liked an extra page in the book to explain how this happened. Even though it did not hide from the depressing subject of Racism, I was cheered up by the optimistic ending and would like to read more by this author.

There are occasional invitations for audience participation – we sing “If you’re happy and you know it” and we stamp our feet.I had to go through bad times, but I feel my life is a happy ending so I needed to give the book a happy ending. We will only use names that have been officially designated by the National Weather Service in the US. From 4am 30 November 2021, fully vaccinated people must self-isolate and take a PCR test before the end of day 2 after they arrive in England. Follow ten-year-old Floella as she and her family set sail from the Caribbean to a new life in London.

When you first wrote Coming to England did you think of writing a picture book, as this was the age of children to whom you devoted the early part of your career? The book told me about the British Empire and about why people came to England from the other side of the world. If you began your journey in Ukraine, you do not need to complete a passenger locator form, or take a COVID-19 test before travel to England or on arrival.

When you have that personal experience, it's great to get an opportunity to share it with society through a book and make a difference.
