BOOKS FROM IRANMind the Child : The Victoria Line
by Camila Batmanghelidjh, Kids Company (Charity)
Description:
Written by the children of Kids Company in partnership with Camila Batmanghelidjh, Mind The Childwill bring voices to light from the hidden parts of the city, the parts not usually heard from in our media, the parts least served by investment, and by public transport. The stations of the Victoria Line are some of the few on the Underground to weave into the capital's most neglected areas - south and east London - but even they stop abruptly at the relatively central points of Brixton at one end, Walthamstow at the other. Here, the children bring us beyond these arbitrary cut-offs, into the vast stretches of the metropolis they call home. They want us to look at what we don't see.
