The book has drawn an interdisciplinary pool of authors, some of whom are natives of South Asian countries and others who have been involved extensively in the region through their affiliations with various international organizations. The book represents children's issues in six South Asian countries: India, Afghanistan, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal, and Bangladesh. The authors in the book critically examine issues facing children in South Asia, reveal inadequacies of governmental policies and programs for children, and offer vision for a better childhood for South Asia's children. The United Nation's Convention on the Rights of the Child, UNCRC, serves as a framework for the book.
