Abstract	Designed for youth workers, teachers, counselors, and student organizers, 11 essays in this handbook examine issues concerned with children's rights. "Children's Rights and Social Work" proposes that social workers can speed and direct the process of change by advocating the rights of young people and by providing services to make those rights a reality. The cartoon, "The Invention of Childhood," suggests that our conceptions of children are shaped by our culture. "A Look At Children's Oppression and Some Suggestions for Change" examines discrimination in the legal system, the family, and the schools. "Changing Childhood" analyzes the isolation of modern middle-class children from active participation in community life. Other essays discuss the weaknesses of alternative youth service agencies, refute arguments that adults use to prevent youth from participating in the political processes, analyze the "myths" of childhood, and describe Youth Liberation of Ann Arbor, the first children's organization run by children. A guide for teachers and workshop leaders provides synopses of handbooks of the Youth Liberation Press accompanied by lesson plans. Titles include "Young People and the Law,""Growing Up Gay,""High School Women's Liberation," and "Student and Youth Organizing." A list of advocacy organizations and an annotated bibliography conclude the handbook. (Author/KC)
