Recent floods in Pakistan have immobilized the country and have put many lives at peril and risk. Of course, among the many affected are children. Response to the disaster has been slow but there are places where one can donate specifically to help children such as UNICEF, World Vision, Save the Children in addition to the Red Cross. PaperTigers has covered a number of books about Pakistani children in distress, particularly those in refugee camps on the Afghanistan-Pakistan border and those working as child laborers. The plight of children in distress and the way their stories can be told in books is the focus of Pegi Shea’s Personal Views piece in this month’s PaperTigers issue which is about refugees.
