<DIV>A new poetry collection from Benjamin Zephaniah highlights the diversity of British society through its children. Here are 12 poems, each one about a child in his or her home environment. Along with the poem comes a brief text explaining the child's background and history. The subjects include a Kurdistani refugee, a Chinese pop star wannabe, a Grenadan boy who loves cricket, and nine others. The book's lesson, rendered in fun, inventive rhymes, is that kids are basically the same regardless of their background. Illustrated with Prodeepta Das' vibrant photographs, <i>We Are Britain!</i> is a fascinating and fun collection.</div>
