The Worst Jobs in History

The Worst Children's Jobs in History takes a look at some of the most difficult, dangerous, and sometimes bizarre jobs that children have had to do throughout history. From working in coal mines to being a child soldier, this book explores the stories of children who have had to work in exploitative and often life-threatening conditions. With a mix of humor and sensitivity, Tony Robinson brings to light the harsh realities of child labor and the importance of fighting for children's rights.
