A powerful anthology of 18 stories focusing on the experiences of children from all regions affected by the tsunami of Boxing Day 2004.
Each child's story, retold by a different well-known children's author, is followed by a short update of the child's progress by the aid worker who gathered details of story. The book is positive, inspirational, and forward-looking. It tells incredible stories of bravery and survival and looks at how the global aid effort has affected the children involved.
An introduction explains what happened in December 2004 and a map shows the areas affected. The global aid effort is also described, explaining to readers how their charity donations have helped. The charity organisations involved (Unicef, Save the Children and others) have provided the photographs that illustrate book.
