Politics. What Adults Don't Tell You

Every day, right during breakfast, power enters our lives. And where there is power, there is politics. Conversations about politics are always a delicate subject, especially with children. One way or another, children hear fragments of adult conversations, reinterpret them in their own way, and discuss them among themselves. This book will help children understand what is happening and why. The simple language, humor, and illustrations of this book make complex political issues comprehensible.

This means that power has had a say in the milk: the manufacturer may have wanted to write something different on the packaging. Even the fact that the clock now shows this specific time is the result of some authority's actions.
