This book is a part of a trend that I've been noticing recently - explanations of foundational documents aimed at youths. This makes sense. Teens are primed for education and developmentally at a stage where they are becoming more politically aware. And it's important for all of us to understand our rights and the consequences of violations. I was not aware of this particular document, though. I didn't know that there was an internationally recognized declaration of the rights of children. This particular book is fairly dry and academic, so you're going to have to work to convince teens it's worth understanding. It would make a decent addition to homeschooling curriculum.
