This simple yet heartwarming series Toy Stories shows children proudly next to their toy collections, from all corners of the globe. We see kids from all walks of life, and from places as distant as Alaska to Malawi. Fascinating to see their collections, all on display, often reflecting the personality of the children themselves. Great work from Gabriele Galimberti, who spent two years, and traveled to more than 50 countries to collect these images. Via Colossal:

“I recorded the spontaneous and natural joy that unites kids despite their diverse backgrounds. Whether the child owns a veritable fleet of miniature cars or a single stuffed monkey, the pride that they have is moving, funny, and thought provoking.”
