The other day in Kiva Club we read a book called Where Children Sleep. This book shows kid’s bedrooms in different places of the world and gives details about their daily life and what they are dealing with. This book shows the life of people living in poverty, and people living it up with all of their money. Our reaction to seeing the comparison of a rich to a poor person was shocking. Another thing to do is think about your modern day bedroom and compare it to the children in this book.

This really connects to Kiva because it focuses on children and were they sleep, given their social status. Kiva is all about helping and giving what is needed to provide materials that people need to survive. This was a outstanding book, and was incredibly shocking to us. We were sad, shocked, and wanted to help all at the same time. It makes us feel that what we are doing, really matters.
