From the producers of Sesame Street, this series is an intimate and inspiring journey into the lives of American families from the perspective of children as they navigate formidable yet all-too-common challenges along with parents and siblings. Each stand-alone half-hour film is directed by an award-winning filmmaker and is designed as a co-viewing experience for adults and kids ages eight and up. The series reveals the strength and perseverance of kids experiencing parental incarceration, climate displacement, the wounds of war, and homelessness. Episodes also delve into kids learning about their own race, ethnicity, and culture; facing and fighting racism; and taking positive steps towards building the future they wish to inhabit. 

 In the premiere episode, Uprooted, two sisters in Iowa face the loss of their farm due to climate change, while a family in Texas waits out the rebuilding of their home damaged by a hurricane.
