Yoto Says: A story about the triumph of hope, love and determination, Coming to England is the inspiring true story of Baroness Floella Benjamin: from Trinidad, to London as part of the Windrush generation, to the House of Lords.

Follow ten-year-old Floella as she and her family set sail from the Caribbean to a new life in London. Alone on a huge ship for two weeks, then tumbled into a cold and unfriendly London, coming to England wasn't at all what Floella had expected . . . What will her new school be like? Will she meet the Queen? Filled with optimism and joy, yet deeply personal and relevant, young children will follow Floella's experiences of moving home and making friends. Alongside vibrant illustrations by Diane Ewen, this powerful story shows little people how courage and determination can always overcome adversity.

Emily ★★★★★

I bought this for my daughter to learn about Windrush history, and she was captivated from the first listen. The 20-minute runtime is perfect for a bedtime story with real depth. It's a beautiful way to share an important part of British heritage.

Stella Q. ★★★★★

The true story of Baroness Floella Benjamin lands so well on this card—my daughter asked to replay the Windrush journey section three times in a row. It’s a gentle, hopeful way to introduce a big piece of history without overwhelming younger listeners.

Brian ★★★★★

My kids were captivated by Floella's journey from Trinidad to London—the way the story weaves in real history without feeling heavy is perfect for their age. The single-card format makes it easy for them to pop in and listen on their own.
