During World War I, Australian and New Zealand soldiers on the front were sent Christmas care packages in a tin billy. The Anzac Billy is the heartwarming story of a little boy packing a billy with all his fathers favourite things, added to by mum and grandma, even though he realises there is no way that the billy can actually go to a particular soldier.
