Free the Children by Craig Kielburger

Free the Children by Craig Kielburger

Craig Kielburger is an activist prodigy who, at twelve years of age, was talking to national leaders, lecturing in public forums, and following the burning passion that would not allow him to overlook cruel injustices thrust upon children around the world. Inspired by a newspaper article about a young boy who had been murdered in Pakistan, Kielburger set forth on an international crusade against child sweatshops, virtual slave labor and the abhorrent conditions to which children are widely subjected. He has met face-to-face with prime ministers, presidents, and spiritual leaders. A powerful and inspiring book about the power young people can wield to change the world, Free the Children is a must-read from a remarkable young man emerging as a premier human rights activist.
