This sensitive portrayal tells the real-life stories of six courageous children and their families who live and work on the streets in Zimbabwe, Mozambique and Guatemala.

With colour photographs by the author, and illustrations, these poignant stories come from the author of the ground-breaking Refugee Diary series.
