- My week with the rubbish-children of Peru
-
Two million children - starting at three or four - are forced to work in Peru, some never leaving the rubbish dump, or the stone quarry, where they make their maegre living. This author spends some time with them, as well as a determined band of Peruvian heroes, supported by Sport Relief, a British charity, who work to get children out of work - something made difficult by the dicates of the IMF.
