'"Empowering Children" makes a passionate and well-presented case for children's rights education. It is very well written and argued, and engages nicely with the relevant literature (both historical and current), making insightful connections between children's rights education theory, research, and practice. R. Brian Howe and Katherine Covell's work represents a major advance in the field.'-Daniel Schugurensky, Ontario Institute for Studies in Education, University of Toronto
