    Did anyone else read that Children at Work book as a kid? It was sort of a picture book aimed at teaching kids about historical child labour in the US (mine workers, factory workers, residential factories, etc). As a kid I thought we’d committed to being ashamed of that practice which stole the energy, youth, and vitality from a disproportionately poor population of children.
