This captivating book affirms a childs ability to think, to seek information, and to question why? Children should be given information, not dogma, and tools for critical thought, not holy books, asserts Dan Barker. Maybe Right, Maybe Wrong teaches children important humanistic ideas. Andrea, the books main character, distinguishes between rules and principles, finds that there is not always a right thing to do, and realizes that sometimes the right thing is to choose the lesser wrong. Her most important insight: Regardless of ones own beliefs, you should respect everybodys human rights. Through Andrea, Barker painlessly teaches situation ethics to children. Maybe Right, Maybe Wrong doesnt speak down to kids, but uses simple language and fun illustrations to make a tough topic understandable.About the Author:Dan Barker, a former preacher, is copresident of the Freedom From Religion Foundation, cohost of Freethought Radio, and cofounder of The Clergy Project.
