Launched at the Hong Kong Book Fair 2025, the illustrated book follows a bear family to a trial at the Hong Kong Court of Final Appeal, introducing young readers to the true meaning of the rule of law and the common law system. Crafted with contributions from experienced solicitors, the book conveys complex concepts such as equality before the law and judicial independence in a clear and concise manner.
President of the Law Society, Mr Roden Tong, said that, “as the statutory self-regulatory body and professional association for solicitors in Hong Kong, the Law Society has a social responsibility to guide children in distinguishing right from wrong, especially when they encounter new ideas.” He added, “by teaching legal principles early, a law-abiding mindset that shapes positive social values will be rooted in their minds. The book can be a tool for parents to teach the importance of the rule of law. We hope the public can easily learn the laws.”
The publication aligns with the Law Society’s long-standing commitment to public legal education through programmes like the “Teen Talk” GBA Study Tour, which has sparked an interest in law among young people.
