Description
In South Asia, unnoticed by the rest of the world, children as young as five are forced to work long hours in mines, quarries, factories, brickyards, plantations, and on the streets.
Childhood Regained helps us get to know some of these children through fascinating stories. But these are Stories of Hope. Yes, there is hope. These twenty gripping stories and a poem are about children who, through resourcefulness, courage, and determination, manage to overcome their plight.
Educators and librarians: This collection of captivating fictional stories, told from the viewpoint of the children involved, is helping young people in developed countries gain awareness about the exploitation of their peers across the globe.
These stories will make an excellent addition to any social justice or international studies program, especially for students aged 12 to 16. And by purchasing this book and telling others about it, you will help make the light shine brighter for children in these difficult situations.
