I Have the Right to Be a Child

40 pp. | Groundwood | June, 2012 | Trade ISBN 978-1-55498-149-6 $18.95
(4) K-3 Translated by Helen Mixter. Illustrated by Aurélia Fronty. Each spread in this picture book begins with the line "I have the right . . ." Serres emphasizes that all children have the same freedoms, including the right to food, clean water, shelter, and a peaceful existence. Vivid colors in Fronty's naïve-style paintings enliven the sometimes ponderous text. A helpful author's note discusses the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
