Migrants

Migrants provides an easy-to-understand explanation for children of what migration is, its causes and consequences.

Topics Covered Include:

• Humanity was nomadic for 99% of its existence
• Sedentary life
• National borders
• The creation of identity documents for increasingly stricter population control
• Globalisation

The recent emergence of populist movements in the West focused on closing borders and rejecting others raises serious questions about our sense of fraternity, especially when we could be facing ever larger migration movements due to the climate crisis.

This book concisely explains what migration is, its causes and consequences, and the humanistic and legal aspects regarding it in the simplest, most objective ways possible, so that children have all the information they need to understand the world around them.

Wonderfully informative, beautifully illustrated and a must-read for all children and adults!
