Review by Horn Book Review

Life, protection, safety--Riddell pairs each of sixteen "different freedoms" with an explanatory sentence (regarding protection: "Nobody has the right to hurt or torture us") and a sketchlike illustration (a winged white horse hugs a child). Inspired by the UN's Universal Declaration of Human Rights, this timely little book offers clear-cut definitions for kids who are ready for abstract concepts. (c) Copyright 2018.
