review 1: This book talks about all the rights that a child has. It does not matter what color, gender, or economic status a person is. The important part is that we are all free to live in a place that has so many opportunities. The book starts with small things that matter like basic basic body parts. The child talks about having eyes, hands, a voice, a heart, and rights. As the book continues, the people in her life are talked about and the items that she experiences in her daily life that she is thankful for. She talks about being free to go to school and having a home to be protected. As the book continues on, towards the end it talks about the main ideas of the world. We have the right to learn about peace and respect. At the end of the book the girl says she has the right to ... moreexpress herself in any way that she wants and that children need to act now because they are the children of now. As a teacher I feel like I will use this book in my class. There are so many different things I could use and it helps so much. I can use this in my classroom to do an activity about children rights. This will allow the children to know what they can do. They have so much freedom in the classroom and through this book I can show that.
review 2: The book I Have the Right to be a Child is focused on the equality within each person. The book discusses the significance of each person, as they are all the same. Whether they are six years old or twenty years old, black or white or a boy or girl, they are all equal. The message behind this book is that every person deserves to obtain the same rights as one another. The book proves to the audience why it is so important to be aware of your own rights as well as the rights of others around you. I believe that children should be exposed to this type of lesson at an early age, in order to maintain equality in schools throughout their years of education by understanding that each one of them hold the same amount importance as the rest of those around them. I believe that the way the author drew out the message of the book, in an informative style that is created through a story makes it an appropriate piece of children literature that would be beneficial for all ages of students. less
