Part of the Around the World series by Kids Can Press

Written by Margriet Ruurs & illustrated by Alice Feagan

Fascinating stories expand how young readers think of school, as they learn about the experiences of real children in thirteen different countries around the world. From Marta in Azezo, Ethiopia, and Luciano in Mérida, Venezuela, to Alina in Taraz, Kazakhstan, and Lu in Shanghai, China, the children who are profiled live in places that truly span the globe. Resources at the end of the book include discussion topics, a list of organizations that help children access education, a world map, and a glossary. 40 pages

"This title is a gentle introduction to the concept that when it comes to global experiences, similarities outweigh differences, though some adult guidance is required." -School Library Journal (Kindergarten-Grade 2)

"This volume could provide a starting place for classrooms that study children around the world, as the backmatter points children to organizations that raise funds for building schools and libraries internationally." -Kirkus Reviews (Ages 3-8)
