Letters written by African children aged 9 to 14 years tell a little bit about themselves: home, family, friends, hobbies, religion, culture and activities such as sports and after-school events.

Across barriers of race, class and gender, children are able to share who they are, what their culture is and what their life is like. This 10-part series offers a natural and uncensored glimpse into their lives.

The programs are self-contained and are nonsequential.
