Book Reviews

“The photographs are the glue of the book, offering students glimpses into other worlds where children just like themselves are learning in a range of formats and locations.”
— School Library Journal

“The photography is splendid and the narrative reinforces the theme we share, ‘We’re all more alike than different.’”
— Partnership for Inclusion

“The book offers hopeful glimpses of children doing what they do best—playing and learning in different cultural contexts.”
— Teaching Tolerance

“Before the first day of school, you might pay a reassuring visit to your child’s classroom and then share this book, pointing out differences and similarities.”
— The Washington Post

“It is a good thing this book is available in library binding, because children will pore over the photos searching for clues about who these other children are and what their lives are like.”
—Christian Library Journal

“These simple paperbacks are like global albums.”
