‘In this book, Tara Collins makes a breakthrough in the narrative on children’s rights by shifting the focus from legalistic approaches to embedding it as a footprint in a rights-based and child-centered humanist praxis. In emphasizing the importance of a relational and intergenerational dialogue in international children’s rights, she provides both conceptual and practical considerations to inform and guide professional practitioners in their engagement with children and adolescents in the spirit of Article 5 of the UN Convention on the Rights of the Child. Highly recommended as a guide for childcare professionals, social workers, parents, teachers and child rights advocates.’
