A cartoon book "Our Planet Under Water" is available for free from Alofa Tuvalu - http://alofatuvalu.tv/page_cadres_us.html - only shipping/handling costs. In 7 languages, for children 9-12 years. More information is in their "store" area. A PDF in English can be downloaded at http://marches.ademe.fr/servlet/getDoc?cid=96&m=3&id=44954&ref=17618&p1=111, but it is hard to read.

It's bizarre that the English download is not easily readable - I tried - but the French version is very good. There are other languages available for download here: http://alofatuvalu.tv/page_cadres_fr.html - you'll need to scroll down about two-thirds of the way if you don't read French... good luck.

Please ignore my previous post - I should have been more thorough the first time - if you scroll down and select the 'anglais' version from this page, the resolution is far better!!! So in fact you can just go to this site directly...
