  • The voices of eight homeless children, ages 6-13, are captured here with stunning illustrations that give you a poignant look at shelter life. Here's the voice of Roberto: "Guess what! Mama and I stopped at this Mexican restaurant -- she talked the owner into a job! She's gonna cook enchiladas for pay – ALL RIGHT, MAMA!" Changing Places acquaints children with the issues of homelessness and poverty. It shows, too, how similar children are in their wants, needs, likes and dislikes, no matter what the circumstances.
