Suffer the Children

Canon Andrew White is International Director of the Iraqi Institute of Peace and President of the Foundation for Reconciliation in the Middle East.

'A slender and tender tribute to the children who have inspired him.'

• From Bethlehem (known throughout the world as the birthplace of a child) and Jerusalem to Iraq and North Carolina, from one of Andrew White's own sons in England and from his adopted son in Iraq, here are the individual stories of the children who support and inspire 'The Vicar of Baghdad' in his frontline work. As he tells their stories, Andrew White reflects for the first time on his own childhood.
