It’s very rare a book brings me to tears， but One Hundred Steps certainly did that。Captain Sir Tom Moore was a remarkable man， and it was an honour getting to read his story。 His sense of adventure was captivating， and showed right through to his last days。This is a perfect way to remember the man who raised millions for the NHS in a time where the world felt like it was falling apart。Thank you Sir Tom。 Your legacy will always have pride of place in our house。

I know this is a children’s picture book but I had to include it in my tally just so I could give it a review。 This books is amazing， a story rewritten just for those smaller children。 Sir Tom Moore is such an inspiration to everyone。 Regardless of what happens in life。。。。tomorrow will be a good day。

A gentleman in every true sense of the word。Captain Sir Tom Moore became our national hero in 2020， when the world was hit by a pandemic that like none of us could ever have imagined。 We looked to others for help。 For reasoning as to what was happening， and a wish to try and escape。 And also for what was lacking in our lives。。。。 INSPIRATION。 One of those who gave us that most important thing， inspiration， was Captain Tom。 He became a grandad to all of us。 He made us laugh， he made us cry。 But he A gentleman in every true sense of the word。Captain Sir Tom Moore became our national hero in 2020， when the world was hit by a pandemic that like none of us could ever have imagined。 We looked to others for help。 For reasoning as to what was happening， and a wish to try and escape。 And also for what was lacking in our lives。。。。 INSPIRATION。 One of those who gave us that most important thing， inspiration， was Captain Tom。 He became a grandad to all of us。 He made us laugh， he made us cry。 But he most of all he truly inspired us。I opened this book and from the first page I was bleary eyed， and then I smiled as his story is told。 Even through his book he is inspiring us again。 It is beautifully written， and so beautifully illustrated。It’s a book for the young， and for those of us who are that ‘little bit older”。It is the short story of his amazing long life。I think everyone of us has felt some kind of loss at his passing。But his favourite quote that we should all live by is。。。。“TOMORROW WILL BE A GOOD DAY “ 。。。more

Heart warming tale to share with children。 We loved the discussion around the quotes in the book and how they are relevant to our lives today。 A great momento of the pandemic year and some of the good that came out of it- an inspiration。

A very lovely book about the life of Captain Tom Moore （now Captain Sir Tom Moore after his honorary knighthood） - an extraordinary ordinary man who chose to raise money for the NHS by walking 100 laps of his garden in time for his 109th birthday。 It’s a nicely illustrated hardcover with a simple but interesting biography showing all the wonderful things Sir Tom has experienced but woven with his personal philosophy that anyone can do anything and that people can’t be held back。

I bought this for my daughter who loved its positive， kind and uplifting message。 Sir Captain Moore showed the world what a seemingly small act of kindness can do。 His contribution to the world is immeasurable - not only did he raise millions of pounds for the NHS but more importantly he raised the spirits of millions of people during a very challenging time。 Thank you Sir Captain Tom Moore， we are so grateful for your teachings and tomorrow will indeed be a better day :）

For my full review， visit me at https://mrsbrownsbooks。wordpress。com/。。。Despite this story coming out of a desperate year， this book has become a lovely message of not giving up in times of trouble。 Moore is a wonderful inspiration and I think this has been fantastically captured in this children’s book。For my full review， visit me at https://mrsbrownsbooks。wordpress。com/。。。 For my full review， visit me at https://mrsbrownsbooks。wordpress。com/。。。Despite this story coming out of a desperate year， this book has become a lovely message of not giving up in times of trouble。 Moore is a wonderful inspiration and I think this has been fantastically captured in this children’s book。For my full review， visit me at https://mrsbrownsbooks。wordpress。com/。。。 。。。more

This book recalls the life of Captain Tom Moore and how his past influenced his decision to do 100 laps of his garden to raise money for the NHS during COVID。It’s a very inspiring book which shows all the different things that has happened in Captain Tom Moore’s life， with the overall message of ‘things will get better’。

Hero of a book！ Bought this for my partners nephew and couldn’t help have a quick read。 I smiled the whole way through and love the illustrations。 Sir Captain Tom Moore is a hero and I can’t thank him enough for the money he has raised for charities， and hope he has inspired in us all。
