Of this first book, 800 copies have been published, and 800 children have received theirs already. You can have a sneak preview below. Our target is to print and deliver 10.000 copies this year, for which we ask your help. With every 3 euro’s, we can translate, draw, publish and deliver a book to a child in Afghanistan. The books have a BookCrossing page to leave your name and message, so books can be passed on to other and reach a wider community of readers. In other words, with every 2 euro’s you will plant the seeds of curiosity and build an inclusive world, one child at a time.
