As a Boy

Boys are often given an education and choices that girls are not, their needs put above those of girls. But boys are also given special burdens by being expected to "be a man", to work, and to fight. Amazing photographs and simple text convey that boys want the girls and women in their lives to have the same freedoms that they have been granted.

The Way to School

Minimal text and stunning photographs from around the world describe the remarkable, and often dangerous, journeys children make every day on their way to school. No simple school bus picks them up each morning, but rather these children negotiate disaster zones, cross rapids, climb mountains, and maneuver on ziplines to reach the classroom.
