'We're going to find that some adults in some countries are going to block the book and the children will find it so I think that's how it's going to reach more children,' says Jolie, posing with the book "Know Your Rights (And Claim Them)", in this undated handout image. Photo: Reuters

Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie says she hopes to empower children around the world with tools to "fight back" for their rights with a book she has written with Amnesty International.

Know Your Rights And Claim Them - written with human rights lawyer Geraldine Van Bueren, one of the original drafters of the 1989 UN Convention on the Rights of the Child - aims to equip kids with the knowledge to safely challenge injustices.
