各界好評
《世界的孩子上學去》不僅有教育意義,而且讓學習不同文化變得更有趣。很少人知道玻利維亞在哪裡或是有什麼東西,所以我很開心能看到這本書介紹了玻利維亞的特色。這本書會讓孩子們想要對世界上的國家有更多的了解。── Henry Tu 亨利/在臺灣的玻利維亞YOUTUBER
「你認為的理所當然,當然不是世界的理所當然」!這是一本可以讓小朋友和家長突破自己框架的好書。這幾年內,我們遇到了多少世界級的困難,到現在克服過來的我們知道,在現代,不是只追求自己國家的事情就好,各國要一起牽手面對世界上的問題。如果要實現這個目標,我們要積極的去了解彼此的生活。這本書介紹了各國的小朋友怎麼上學,是一本可以讓小朋友和家長突破自己框架的好書。了解你我視為理所當然的事物,其實並不一致的時候,才能開始互相尊重彼此的文化。──Iku老師/YOUTUBER
本書能夠激起孩子的好奇心(同時也希望讓他們對於上學心存感恩),啟發他們去思考相關的問題。──美國《科克斯評論》
