Synopsis

This is a story about friendship and freedom, a story that will encourage all children to be world changers.

Come on a journey to Ghana, Africa, where some little boys and girls are forced to work from morning until night. Watch closely as visitors come into a village and make friends with the people there, teaching them a new and better way to fish that does not require the labor of small boys and girls. Celebrate freedom as these children return to their families and get to play and attend school for the first time. Discover how every life has the chance to tell a beautiful story.

******

Four years ago, Chris Field and his wife Stacey started a non-profit working in Ghana, Africa to help rescue children who had been trafficked into the fishing industry. Since then, their non-profit Mercy Project has been on an amazing journey that has led to the rescue of 46 children who have now been reintegrated back into their families and are all attending school.

This children's book is the true story of Mercy Project's innovative process of partnering with fishing villages who own children and of walking alongside people who need help rather than offering quick fixes or band-aids. Complete with words in the native African language and rich discussion questions for all ages, this book is written in a way that will spark meaningful conversation between parents and children and encourage young ones (and their parents!) to use their lives to make a difference.
