About this product

Product Information

An updated edition of The Shed That Fed A Million Children first published in 2015. The original book tells the incredible story of how Magnus MacFarlane-Barrow, a quiet, unassuming fish farmer from Argyll, Scotland, became the international CEO of a global school-feeding charity. At that time, Mary's Meals was feeding a million children every school day in some of the poorest countries of the world. Fast forward six years and that figure has now doubled to more than 2 million children who now receive Mary's Meals daily in their place of education. In this edition, which features an additional chapter as well as a new preface and epilogue, Magnus brings the story right up-to-date, recounting how the continued growth of the international movement has been made possible, thanks to a global legion of staff, volunteers and supporters. Their unwavering commitment, dedication and continued 'little acts of love' have created an organisation that now holds the key to eradicating child hunger altogether. This humble, heart-warming yet powerful story has never been more relevant in our society of plenty and privilege. It will open your eyes to the extraordinary impact that Mary's Meals makes in the lives of the children it serves - for them, food changes the story. Speaking Volumes Christian Book of the Year 2016. Previously published as The Shed That Fed a Million Children.

    • Everyone should read this!

      This is one of the most inspiring books I've ever read. After reading it I saw that the author was speaking at a seminar at The Irish Centre in Camden Town and a couple of other places. I booked a train ticket from Wales and it was one of the most interesting afternoons I've had in a long time. It was empowering.

    • Very moving and extremely informative.

      In this book the founder of 'Mary's Meals' narrates how he and members of his family, following visits to Medjugorge, first responded to the needs of those caught up in the war of Sarajevo and how from that beginning, they set up (from a shed in Scotland) an appeal to reach out to all people, particularly children, who find themselves caught up in war and the results of war - hunger, homelessness and fear. The book chronicles the efforts of one man and his family to respond to the needs of very poor families by providing a meal for their children each day, which will then enable them to attend school and eventually find a way out of abject poverty. This book is indeed a compelling read.

      having only found about "Mary's Meals" a few weeks ago I had to order this book. It is brilliant and found out just what is happening in all parts of the world to feed the children.
