For Every Child: The UN Convention on the Rights of the Child in Words and Pictures
In the foreword, Desmond Tutu reminds us that all children have the right to be happy, to be healthy, to learn and to find security in adults that they can trust. Many children in the world do not have these rights, either due to war, famine, training as child soldiers or as refugees fleeing their homes. Fourteen rights are highlighted in the book with an illustration by an international artist.
