First, the eight-year-old boy who has been writing letters to people | :00:40. | :00:44. | |
all over the world. He never expected to get any replies. 780 | :00:45. | :00:50. | |
letters later, this is his story. Hi, my name's Toby and | :00:51. | :00:53. | |
I'm eight years old. Three years ago I asked my mum to | :00:54. | :00:58. | |
help me with a special project. I read a book called | :00:59. | :01:02. | |
The Letters From New Zealand and I wanted to speak to people | :01:03. | :01:04. | |
around the world to find out I started writing letters to places | :01:05. | :01:08. | |
like the South Pole and got Just before my sixth birthday I got | :01:09. | :01:14. | |
a response back from the South Pole and I even got a "happy | :01:15. | :01:21. | |
birthday, Toby" banner. I have written really | :01:22. | :01:25. | |
800 letters and it has been really good | :01:26. | :01:27. | |
handwriting practice. And the most exciting | :01:28. | :01:31. | |
thing happened. All the letters have been | :01:32. | :01:34. | |
turned into this book! People send me fridge | :01:35. | :01:39. | |
magnets, pop-up books But they also include | :01:40. | :01:40. | |
what their lives are like and what school is like, | :01:41. | :01:48. | |
so I do love all my responses. This just shows that you can make | :01:49. | :01:57. | |
friends all over the world. Next, an American army dog called | :01:58. | :02:09. | |
Lucca is being awarded The brave dog is getting | :02:10. | :02:12. | |
the highest award possible from an animal charity to recognise | :02:13. | :02:22. | |
the work she carried mission she was injured after | :02:23. | :02:28. | |
stepping on an explosive device. She recovered, though, | :02:29. | :02:43. | |
and has been flown to the UK First, more than a million migrants | :02:44. | :02:46. | |
and refugees have come to Europe Now a new plan to deal with the huge | :02:47. | :02:50. | |
numbers of people asking for help has begun, though it's | :02:51. | :02:55. | |
already causing problems. Migrants and refugees arriving | :02:56. | :02:57. | |
in Europe, just some of the many Already this year over 150,000 | :02:58. | :03:01. | |
people, lots of them children, Many make the dangerous journey | :03:02. | :03:05. | |
to escape war and poverty in countries like Syria, | :03:06. | :03:10. | |
Iraq and parts of Africa. One of the first places | :03:11. | :03:12. | |
they usually get to is Lesbos, European governments have found it | :03:13. | :03:15. | |
difficult to cope with the huge numbers of those needing help | :03:16. | :03:19. | |
and they've spent a long time Well, the BBC's Sarah Rainsford | :03:20. | :03:21. | |
is in Greece, where many migrants are leaving by boat as part | :03:22. | :03:28. | |
of a new plan to deal I am in the harbour here on Lesbos | :03:29. | :03:30. | |
and that white passenger ferry over there, the small one | :03:31. | :03:38. | |
that's marked Turyol, is one of the ones that was used | :03:39. | :03:39. | |
to carry dozens of people today It is just a couple of hours' boat | :03:40. | :03:43. | |
ride across the sea. The people taken back had | :03:44. | :03:48. | |
all crossed to Greece in recent weeks, but so many migrants have | :03:49. | :03:52. | |
been heading to Europe that the EU decided it needs new rules | :03:53. | :03:55. | |
to cope with that. It thinks that many of these | :03:56. | :03:57. | |
people could be quite safe staying in Turkey and so according | :03:58. | :04:02. | |
to the new rules anybody who can't prove that they need to stay | :04:03. | :04:05. | |
here in Europe faces being deported. protesting against that and the most | :04:06. | :04:08. | |
upset about it of all are of course They're now living in a detention | :04:09. | :04:18. | |
camp here on Lesbos and the ones I've been talking to say | :04:19. | :04:22. | |
they are very worried But if their request to stay | :04:23. | :04:24. | |
here in Europe on the island is rejected then they, | :04:25. | :04:30. | |
too, could soon be on ferries like that one | :04:31. | :04:32. | |
there and heading back to Turkey and we could see even | :04:33. | :04:35. | |
more serious protests. And if you want to know more | :04:36. | :04:37. | |
about the migrant and refugee crisis then we have loads more | :04:38. | :04:40. | |
information online. A new set of stamps will be launched | :04:41. | :04:41. | |
today, celebrating the genius The ten stamps show quotes | :04:42. | :04:44. | |
from Shakespeare's writing and have been released to commemorate 400 | :04:45. | :04:50. | |
years since the writer died. That's all from me, Newsround's back | :04:51. | :04:55. | |
