The South-East Asia Earthquake and Tsunami Blog: Chennai: AID India's children's booklet on tsunamis

To help reduce children's fears of another tsunami, A.I.D. India has brought out a booklet on tsunamis in both English and Tamil. The Tamil edition is being distributed to the children in tsunami-affected areas (with somebody discussing it with them and explaining that they need not fear a Tsunami recurrence). The English version is being sold in Chennai and in other areas at Rs 3/- a copy. All money from sales will go towards AID Chennai's Tsunami Relief Work.
You can download a PDF of the English booklet here. (28.8Mb)
