Full synopsis

A hilariously honest memoir of a toddler’s life throughout the Covid-19 pandemic. Navigating the confusion of multiple national lockdowns, in addition to the normalisation of face coverings and endless hand sanitiser, two year old Noah manages to master potty training and adjust to the ‘new normal’. This book shares the tale of the ups, downs and tantrums of life in lockdown.

It is a comprehensive account of the timeline of the Covid-19 pandemic. It offers an almost day-by-day description of how life changed for one young boy, against the backdrop of the terror that was sweeping the globe. It captures the spread of the virus, the race for vaccines and the collective response of the Government in trying to manage the ever-changing landscape.

A Toddler's Tale: Life In Lockdown is a laugh-out-loud narrative of Noah's life. Whilst heart-warming and humorous, it manages to retain a poignant tone fitting of the unprecedented crisis that defined a generation.

A very enjoyable memoir and reminder of the impact Covid 19 had on everyday life. It balances the daily information shared by the government with the practicality of how it impacted a young family. Brilliantly written with a great sense of humour.
