A challenging and thought-provoking collection of new poetry and prose from some of the industry's most prestigious and talented authors and illustrators.

Contributors include: Laurence Anholt; Julie Bertagna; Mary Hoffman; Adrian Mitchell; Beverley Naidoo; Caroline Pitcher; Michael Rosen; Ros Asquith; Korky Paul; Elizabeth Laird; Hiawyn Oram; Marcus Sedgwick; Peter Whitby; Stephen Aitken; Ann Jungman; Joanna Troughton; Michael Morpurgo; Jane Yolen; David Almond; Nick Sharratt; and Kevin Crossley-Holland. All royalties and publisher's profits will go to UNICEF to directly fund the bringing of aid to child victims of the war in Iraq.
