From School Library Journal:
Gr 9 UpIn a series of 17 articles, this book addresses child labor around the world and the use of sweatshops by industry. The selections are written by a variety of people, from journalists to teachers to human-rights activists, all of whom give different perspectives on this complex issue. Essays discuss efforts to ban imports of items made by children, whether consumer pressure can reduce the use of sweatshops, and sweatshops and the economies of developing countries. Some of the articles have endnotes and all are preceded with an abstract. This thought-provoking volume would be especially useful for preparing a persuasive paper or an oral report on the topic.Lynn W. Zimmerman, Southeast Middle School, Greensboro, NC
