We have worked with children, teenagers, parents, teachers, administrators, government ofﬁcials and university researchers to construct a reasonable future for learning in and out of school. Many people have contributed ideas. You will meet some of them in this book, and we will add many more, both in evolving versions of this manuscript, and on our website.  \nWe offer this Pre-Publication Edition for several reasons. Most important, we seek input, feedback, and your ideas about what ought to be added, deleted, or changed. We are especially interested in perspectives from cultures that are not represented, or not wellrepresented, in the current version. Please use the comment [form on ](form on www.kidsonearth.org)[www.kidsonearth.org](form on www.kidsonearth.org).  \nIn an effort to make this pre-publication version available without delay, we have focused on the digital side, so there is no print version available. If you are interested in purchasing a print version of the book, please use the comment form (above), and we’ll let you know when if and when it becomes available.  \nEnjoy. Be well. We look forward to your comments.  \nHoward Blumenthal Robert Pianta July, 2024  \nAbout the Book’s Title:  \nKids-A“kid” is person living under adult supervision or control, as young as an infant, as old as a teenager, often well into their early 20s.  \non Earth-For every 10 kids on earth, 6 live in Asia, 2 live in Africa, 1 lives in Europe, and 1 lives in the Americas.
