| Summary/Abstract |
Separated from his family when they were forced to flee their home, a young East African boy named Deo lives alone in the Lukole refugee camp in Tanzania. With scarce resources at the camp, bullies have formed gangs to steal what they can, and a leader named Remy has begun targeting Deo. Then one day a coach gathers all the children to play soccer. Though Deo loves soccer and has even made his own ball out of banana leaves, he's unsure at first about joining in when he sees Remy on the field. But as Deo and the other boys get drawn into the game, everything begins to change. Their shared joy in playing provides the children - including Remy - with a sense of belonging.

| Summary/Abstract |
It's time to learn and celebrate the rights that the United Nations laid out in 1948 so that the atrocities of World War and Holocaust would never happen again. The Universal Declaration of Human Rights isn't a law and it isn't a treaty and not everyone agrees with it or follows its rules. It's a document translated into over 330 languages that calls on all of us to work as hard as we can to guarantee a world of freedom and peace.
