<p><b>Raymond Briggs'' world-famous graphic account of one ordinary couple''s attempt to stand firm in the face of nuclear annihilation remains as powerful today as it was when it was first published in 1982.</b><br><br>Following Jim and Hilda Blogg in the days before and after a nuclear attack on Britain, <i>When the Wind Blows</i> is alternately funny, shocking, heartbreaking and devastating. Few can read it and not be deeply moved.<br><br>Despite writing some of the most beloved and enduring children''s books of all time - <i>The Snowman, Father Christmas </i>and<i> Fungus the Bogeyman</i> - <i>When the Wind Blows</i> is very much a story for adults. Not only does it articulate the fears of the generations who grew up in the shadow of the Cold War, but it also speaks today of our own fears, living as we do in a nuclear age.<br><br>Written and illustrated by Briggs, <i>When the Wind Blows</i> has never been out of print.</p>
