Children Just Like Me is a celebration of children around the world, published to coincide with UNICEF's 50th
anniversary. For the past two years, a photographer and teacher have traveled to five continents to meet and talk to
children from many different walks of like. Children will enjoy reading about the dreams and beliefs, hopes and fears,
and day-to-day events of other children's lives, understanding not just the obvious differences between one another,
but discovering the extraordinary similarities. Children are encouraged to participate in a special pen pal arrangement,
so that they may share their own experiences with children in other countries.
