In cooperation with UNICEF, Millbrook Press has created this poignant photographic journey of a family in the aftermath of the devastating tsunami. A portion of the proceeds of each book sold will go to the tsunami relief effort. The devastation of the recent Tsunami affects everyone, including children. Ann Morris and UNICEF photographer Heidi Larson traveled to the region of Thailand hit by the recent Tsunami to tell the story of a family before and after the event. The book discusses the family's experience during the storm and the chaos immediately following. But the focus is on what life was like immediately after the disaster: coping with loss; the availability of food, shelter, and clothing; post-flood disease control; and the children's attempt at re-entry into elementary school life.
