Synopsis

This lyrical picture book introduces young readers to the universal rights every child deserves, as outlined in the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child. Using the metaphor of a unique 'song' for each child, it explores essential needs like love, protection, and education. The book also sensitively addresses issues such as child labour and war, encouraging readers to advocate for children's rights worldwide. Beautiful watercolour illustrations enhance the message of compassion and kindness.
