Gorgeous November 24, 2008
I am so excited about this book; it is really a great addition to your library. I teach third grade and I bought two copies-- one for my classroom and another for the eighth grade teacher. If you have religion lessons in your school (I teach at a Catholic school) this can also really help supplement lessons about compassion, dignity, etc.

I had been waiting for the release of this book and was so excited when I finally purchased it. I think that it is a must have for your child's library if you are interested in promoting your child's sense of awareness about important issue pertaining to basic human rights. The one thing I would note is that I don't think it necessarily 'speaks' to 5 year olds. I think you might have to simplify it a bit more for audiences that young. However, I think its appropriate for audiences as mature as teenagers and adults. The illustrations are really entertaining. I think they should be made into wall prints. I would reccomend this. Especially considering that all proceeds go to Amnesty International.br /
