When Toby Little was five years old, he decided to write to someone in every country in the world. With the help of his mum, Toby started handwriting and posting letters to everyone from research scientists in Antarctica to game-keepers in Chad and even the Pope. Not only did Toby achieve his goal but the world wrote back. Dear World, How Are You? is a collection of the most fascinating and heart-warming letters he sent and received. It shows that the world is only as big as your imagination and is full of potential friends, waiting to be discovered, no matter where you live.

For use in schools and libraries only. A poetic book filled with illustrations that capture the joy of discovery as a child explores his colorful world by pointing out its many wonders and simple pleasures.

The authors of these letters are students in the Core classes at a Junior High School in California. These letters reveal the stresses they face, the concerns they have, and the social issues that drive them to seek change. These letters are a window into the heart and soul of the modern teenage mind. This book started from the simple question, What does student voice sound like? In developing this voice, Core students observe and explore community issues as well as global issues and attempt to find possible solutions for these issues. Students are empowered to be the change they want to see in their world. As students develop their own unique voice, they begin to have a greater interest in the world and a stake in changing it for the better.

I have suffered from Fibromyalgia all my life. The last few years have been the worst. After talking with many people who are just like me, I realized how great it felt to know I wasn't alone. I also realized that if it helped me to talk to them, then maybe it whould help others as well. So I wrote this book to help others know they are not alone. The World does care.

Dear World is a sweeping critique of nationalism and a practical guide for anyone interested in world peace, the freedom to travel, and human rights.
