These eye-opening but hopeful stories and a poem bring to life some of the situations faced by millions of children working long hours in factories, mines, and quarries, and on city streets and commercial farms in Asia.

This edition also includes study questions for each story, brief factual information on conditions in various industries in South Asia, a glossary, and information on charitable organizations that are working to help these children.

Educators and librarians: These captivating fictional stories, organized and edited by a former middle-grade teacher and teacher-librarian, are told through the voices of Asian child workers in various situations. They are the perfect medium to engage your students and help them gain awareness of the situations of many of their peers across the globe. These stories will make a valuable additional resource for any social studies program, especially for students aged 11 to 14.
