About the book
Emma Carter buys a ticket for the lottery every week, and puts the ticket carefully in her bag. She is seventy-three-years-old and does not have much money. She would like to visit her son in Australia, but the airplane tickets are very expensive. Jason Williams buys lottery tickets every week too. But he is not a very nice young man. He steals things. He hits old ladies in the street, snatches their bags and runs away.
