From School Library Journal:

PreSchool-Grade 3-Clear, colorful photographs capture the day-to-day life of schoolchildren around the globe. The book has a minimal text and one or two captioned photos per page. Various types of schools and classrooms are pictured including a group of students studying outdoors in Mali and a homeschooling situation in France. How children get to class is described and illustrated with examples ranging from a horse-drawn wagon in Bolivia and a boat in Peru to a school bus in the U.S. What children wear and what they do once they get there are also explored. A great back-to-school title for teachers to share with their students.
