Child-to-Child Primary Health Readers - view the full list of stories for children
Designed for school children in Africa, the 16 storybooks are graded for age and reading ability, and contain simple but powerful health messages.
The latest Primary Health Reader is Five Friends of the Sun: When Tulio the farmer steps on a land mine, there is no one to see but the Sun. The Sun calls his friends who come to drink that evening at the dam where Tulio died: the tiny kangaroo rat, the hunting dog and her pack, the high-soaring vulture, the lazy lion and the great grey elephant. This story tells how the five friends of the Sun helped Tulio's children learn to survive in a land where mines lie buried; how they spread messages about the dangers of mines and the responsibility shared by all those who use them, and how they demonstrate children's power to safeguard others, raise mine awareness and lead us towards a future free from the fear of land mines.
