Why read it?
1 author picked All the Little Children as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The ending of this engrossing apocalyptic story is heart-stopping and so impactful. It left me in tears on public transport!
I found the depiction of motherhood powerful, with working mum Marlene taking her children for a camping trip and unwittingly surviving a devastating event that hits the UK.
The book has lots of the elements I love in this genre – such as abandoned places and a perilous journey. The way Marlene navigates the transformed landscape, trying to protect her children amid so much death, while dealing with her own guilt and struggles over being a mother, is compelling.
From H's list on tear-jerking post-apocalyptic books about parental sacrifice and love.
