We now call it The Great Realisation and, yes, since then there
have been many. But that's the story of how it started ... and why
hindsight's 2020. First performed online in response to the
Covid-19 pandemic, Tomos Roberts' heartfelt poem, with its message
of hope and resilience, has been viewed over 60 million times and
translated into over 20 languages. Adapted by Ashley Banjo and
Diversity into a BAFTA-winning dance performance for Britain's Got
Talent! As featured in the official BBC New Years Eve fireworks
spectacular! 'A beautiful book and beautifully illustrated' - Kate
Garraway, Good Morning Britain Written in the form of a bedtime
story, The Great Realisation is a celebration of the many things -
from simple acts of kindness, to applauding the heroic efforts of
our key workers - that have brought us together at a time of global
crisis. It captures, with magical resonance, the thoughts and
feelings of millions in lockdown, as we adapted to a new way of
life, found joy in unexpected places, cast aside old habits and
reflected on what truly matters to us. The Great Realisation is a
timely reminder that, even during our most challenging moments,
there is always hope. Tomos's second book, The World Awaits, was
published in July 2021 and he was commissioned by the Royal British
Legion to write an Armistice Day poem, Alive With Poppies, which he
performed at the Royal Albert Hall in commemoration of 100 years of
the poppy. He wrote a Christmas poem, 'I Actually, Love London' for
BBC London in December 2021. 'This fairytale-style story provides a
springboard for discussion of current events with children, and
presents a more optimistic view of the future in a time where the
outlook often seems bleak' - School Library Journal, US
