Beskrivning
Migrants provides an easy-to-understand explanation for children of what migration is, its causes and consequences.Humanity was nomadic for 99% of its existence. Sedentary life, national borders and the creation of identity documents for increasingly stricter population control are comparatively recent phenomena, and paradoxical given that the world is becoming ever more globalized. The recent emergence of populist movements in the West that are focused on closing borders and rejecting others raises serious questions about our sense of fraternity, especially when we could be facing ever larger migration movements due to the climate crisis.This book concisely explains what migration is, its causes and consequences, and the humanistic and legal aspects regarding it in the simplest, most objective ways possible, so that children have all the information they need to understand the world around them.Introduces children aged 8 and up to complex global social issues in a sensitive and balanced wayCharacterful illustrations appropriate for the readership and subject matterEasy-to-follow, bite-size textIncludes a case study on the migration into EuropeFor ages 8+

Recensioner i media

This is an effective book for explaining migration to children aged 8 and up. It provides context for what is happening in the world today and outlines the causes and consequences of the movement of people from one country to another. The complexities of the subject have been made easy to understand with graphic-style illustrations, maps and diagrams supporting clear and objective text. It’s a comprehensive overview of the subject. Though free of emotive language, this is a powerful book that is helpful in highlighting global inequality.
