For the best part of a year Barnabas and Anabel Kindersley travelled around Britain to compile a portrait of British children on the eve of the new millennium. They asked the children questions about what they think and feel about their lives, their homes, their friends and their families, and about their hopes and dreams for the future. The result is an extraordinary book, Children of Britain Just Like Me. Every child in the book tells a unique story and each of them demonstrates their talent and energy in a time when the world is looking both to the past and to the future for answers. From eight-year-old Ruairidh in the north west of Scotland to Can and Cem, nine-year-old twins of Turkish decent and growing up in London, each child casts a fresh and canny eye over the world in which we live.Published in association with UNICEF and with a foreword by Robbie Williams, Children of Britain Just Like Me is a book that children will return to time and time again, and one that parents will treasure long into the future. Age 8 and over --Susan Harrison

Sie heißen Celina, Sarala, Yong-Koo oder Gabriel. Sie sind „Kinder aus aller Welt“ und geben Einblick in ihre Lebensrealität. Wie beispielsweise Olja aus Russland, die von ihrem Alltag in einem Vorort von Moskau erzählt. Sie berichtet von ihrem Lieblingsessen und dem Plüschhund Partos, stellt ihre Eltern und die beste Freundin Julja vor. Und sie vermittelt einen Eindruck davon, wie ein Kinderleben an einem anderen Ort aussehen kann. Ganz unterschiedlich als irgendwo anders auf der Welt und doch in vielen Punkten faszinierend ähnlich. Das Bilder-Buch mit zahlreichen Fotografien und Hintergrundinformationen ist entstanden in Zusammenarbeit mit Unicef und wird eingeleitet mit einem Vorwort der Unicef-Botschafterin Sabine Christiansen. Ein Teil des Erlöses wird direkt an das Kinderhilfswerk weitergeleitet.
