Walking to school can be hard if you live in Belfast, Northern Ireland. It's downright dangerous if you're a Catholic, like Allison, and the shortest route to your school goes through a Protestant neighborhood. But sometimes a ray of kindness cuts through the violence. That's what happens when a demonstrator rips a brass button off Allison's new school blazer, and a Protestant girl not only retrieves the button but returns it to Allison.
Once again, as in FLY AWAY HOME and the caldecott-winning SMOKY NIGHT, Eve Bunting finds a way to explore a complicated contemporary situation in terms that any young reader can immediately grasp.

reviewed Walking to School: A Story from Northern Ireland on November 12, 2019 Walking to School: A Story from Northern Ireland
Very moving story of life for Catholics and Protestants in North Ireland and their experience of 'The Troubles '.
Story of a young Catholic girl who dreads going to school as she has to pass thru the Protestant section and there have been riots and violence from time to time. She has one of her buttons ripped off her jacket and a Protestant child retrieves it for her, making her pensive about what it would like to be friends, if the adults would only allow them to be.
