After ten years of study and consultation, UNICEF, the premier
organization devoted to the care and welfare of the world's children,
published the results of the Convention on the Rights of the Child.
Using these tenets as a base, A Life Like Mine profiles children from
all over the globe leading their lives in different and fascinating
ways. The challenges of nations both developed and developing are
revealed in the stories and photographs in this special volume. DK and
UNICEF have combined their inspirational forces to provide remarkable
insight into children's lives.
