Imagine seeing the Queen that close as she goes by in her golden
carriage! The kiddies will have something to tell their kiddies,
won't they? And a drink of real champagne to go with it! Coronation
Day, 2 June 1953! A humble, working-class family from Sheffield is
desperate to buy train tickets to London to see the coronation, but
doing so means forsaking their annual seaside holiday. After some
scrimping and saving, and a family meeting in which the enthusiasm
of the children overrules the reluctance of their long-suffering
mother and grandmother, the Clagg family take the plunge and buy
premium, champagne tickets for the big day. But alas, not
everything goes smoothly. Will their tickets be everything they
hoped for and dreamed? Will granny stop grumbling that it's all a
waste of money? And, most importantly, will they all get to see
their beloved Queen? In this tender and heartwarming story, Paul
Gallico brings to life the joy and fervor that swept the nation.
