So much accomplished from so litte

This book is a vivid journalisitc exploration of the children's lives who have been affected or infected by the African Aids epidemic. Ms. Kew has rendered these little souls with a humanity that transcends the tradgey which is about to engulf them. With sales from this book, produced almost entirely from her own funds (which in itself is quite amazing), she has managed to build her first school in Africa to educate 500 orphans and to retrain adults for future employment. It is a worthy read and acknowledgement that we are all in this together, whatever continent we happen to reside on.

One person can make a difference.

This beautiful book of African photos tells the touching story of a woman (Chelli Kew) who was compelled to help the aids orphans in Africa. She literally risked her life in this pursuit and against all odds has published this book. Sales proceeds from the book have enabled her to establish a school and continue down the path of helping many of the orphaned children. She is an excellent example of how one person can make a difference. Her story is truly inspiring and one that I have been proud to share with my family and friends. I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in helping others and learning more about the disastrous aids situation in Africa.

A beautiful collection of photographs and reflections.

This book is a beautiful collection of stunning photographs, thoughtfully recorded impressions, vividly depicted stories, and honest reflections. Kew combines the power of imagery and words to tell the story of children orphaned by AIDS in Africa. The work she is doing is so valuable, and this book supports her efforts. I hope it opens the minds of many readers who care, like Kew, to make a difference.
