Today there are nearly six million children under the age of 5 living in poverty in the world's richest country. Behind from the Start examines what lies behind the stubbornly high rate of poverty among young children in the U.S. and its consequences. It explains the multiple ways in which early-life poverty robs millions of children of a promising future, and calls for dramatic changes in how we approach this problem.
In Poor Kids in a Rich Country, Lee Rainwater and Timothy Smeeding ask what it means to be poor in a prosperous nation - especially for any country's most vulnerable citizens, its children. In comparing the situation of American children in low-income families with their counterparts in fourteen other countries—including Western Europe, Australia, and Canada—they provide a powerful perspective on the dynamics of child poverty in the United States. Based on the rich data available from the transnational Luxembourg Income Study (LIS), Poor Kids in a Rich Country puts child poverty in the United States in an international context. Rainwater and Smeeding find that while the child poverty rate in most countries has been relatively stable over the past 30 years, child poverty has increased markedly in the United States and Britain—two of the world's wealthiest countries. The book delves into the underlying reasons for this difference, examining the mix of earnings and government transfers, such as child allowances, sickness and maternity benefits, unemployment insurance, and other social assistance programs that go into the income packages available to both single- and dual-parent families in each country. Rainwater and Smeeding call for policies to make it easier for working parents to earn a decent living while raising their children—policies such as parental leave, childcare support, increased income supports for working poor families, and a more socially oriented education policy. They make a convincing argument that our definition of poverty should not be based solely on the official poverty line—that is, the minimum income needed to provide a certain level of consumption—but on the social and economic resources necessary for full participation in society. Combining a wealth of empirical data on international poverty levels with a thoughtful new analysis of how best to use that data, Poor Kids in a Rich Country will provide an essential tool for researchers and policymakers who make decisions about child and family policy.

The Strangest Tale You've NEVER Read: Weird things happen during wars. One of the strangest tales you've never read is how the richest kid in France teamed up with a teenage slave to help win America's Revolutionary War. (And it's true.) Spies & Lies (+ Tons of Money): Lafayette was nineteen when he arrived at General George Washington's "front door step" (his military tent) and basically said, "Put me in, coach, I'm ready to play." Washington didn't need another soldier with a quick trigger finger. He needed money, and Gilbert Lafayette had inherited tons of it. Washington signed him up. For the final member of his team, Washington wanted someone who was a really good liar (especially when a gun was pointed at him). And he found him: James Armistead, a teenage slave. The Kid Who Fooled Them All: Everyone assumed that James Armistead was a Black boy who couldn't read, write, or add a column of numbers. But the kid fooled them all (and he even spoke French)! Pretending to be a runaway slave, Armistead became a servant for the commander of England's forces, Lord Cornwallis. All the while, he risked his life to supply General Washington and Lafayette with details about British strengths, weaknesses, and troop movements. Gilbert Lafayette and James Armistead weren't very good at following rules, but they were terrific at getting results for General Washington. They dodged death, lied when they had to, and lived extraordinary lives. Their motto? "Cur non?!" - "Why not?!" Author's Website: www.LeeSmyth.com
