                                                                                                                                             —Booklist, October 1, 2017
                                  Do humans have innate rights? World bodies including the United Nations say the answer is unequivocally yes. What do
                                  those rights entail? How are they being violated? And what is being done to ensure respect for human rights for marginalized
                                  populations? These and other issues are examined in the Human Rights in Focus series. Vivid details and fully documented
                                  quotes add insight into these difficult issues. An appendix gives students ideas about how they can get involved.

         Changing Families








                                 American families are changing. New attitudes toward adoption, same-sex marriage, interracial relations, and more have
                                 influenced the makeup of families all across the nation. The Changing Families series helps young readers understand the
                                 experience of being part of a nontraditional family. Chapters examine the changes that are taking place, how young people
                                 within these families view themselves, and how they are affected by the views of outsiders. Each book also presents stories of
                                 well-known people who have grown up in nontraditional families.
