Empowering children to cherish and protect their linguistic heritage.
My Language Rights dives into the vibrant world of languages in our communities, showing how language is more than just words – it carries our stories, memories, and culture.
Drawing on PEN International’s Universal Declaration of Linguistic Rights, this book champions every child’s right to their own language. It highlights the importance of recognising language rights as fundamental human rights.
With engaging stories and vivid illustrations, My Language Rights inspires readers to appreciate multilingualism and how it enriches our shared experiences and knowledge. A must-read for anyone who believes in the power of language and the need to protect it.
