Unquestionably, to be a kid is the most exciting thing to be. With a foreword by Martin and Chris Kratt, creators of the PBS series Kratts' Creatures and Zoboomafoo, TO BE A KID presents the best parts of growing up. Filled with beautiful photographs, TO BE A KID celebrates kids as they play and learn, as they spend time with their friends and family, and as they discover their environment and the world. Kids, no matter where they are from, share this same wonderful adventure and at the heart of it a kid is just a kid.

Anyone who is a kid, was a kid, has a kid, or even knows a kid will...

Photographs from around the world celebrate the universal joy that kids get from making music, whether they re playing instruments, clapping their hands, stomping their feet, or singing. Music can help express one child s feelings or it can bring a whole community together."

Maya Ajmera and Greg Fields provide the architecture of a new perspective on the global agenda for children, based on a new global web of relationships stemming from the community level. Arguing that the existing global agenda for children has failed, this book reimagines how society can support the world s most vulnerable children. In doing so, Invisible Children identifies and gives voice to the millions of children globally living on society s margins, while showing a way forward as to how we can best invest in children.
