It was easy to follow, offered lots of information, and inspirational quotes. This book told about young activists and their journeys to social change. It encourages other young individuals that they too can make a change. Wilson has written a number of texts on how children can help to change to world. This book focuses on child activists' efforts to draw attention to children's rights--as delineated in the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. While OUR RIGHTS is an attractive and colorful text, there is far too much social justice jargon in it. Generally speaking it is not written in accessible, child-friendly language. I really think more would have been less--say: focusing on five kids in more detail than the ten we have here discussed in the vague language of social justice. More photographs of the difficult conditions in which children live would also likely provide more motivation for average kids to involve themselves in social change initiatives. I admire Wilson's intentions, but I do not think this scattered approach serves them as well as a more focused textual treatment could. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
