Roma picture book

"In the midst of the credit crunch, a group of 7 to 14 year old Roma in East London are showing you don't need expensive digital cameras to produce professional photographs. Working with Akademia Pstryk and The Children Society this group of talented young people are using pinhole photography to produce a picture book that will teach people about their culture. 1,500 copies of the book will be given away at public events, and it will also be available to download online.
