"With little information available about libraries of the world,
this title offers a glimpse into the world of books, which several
countries consider as important as air or water. This might be an
interesting revelation to many students who consider reading a
laborious task and to those who take an abundance of books very
much for granted." — School Library Journal
"One of the more unusual books about libraries, this may also get
kids thinking about children in other countries in a way that the
series books never do." — Kirkus Reviews
"The easygoing and accessible narrative would work well as either a
readaloud or as a text for independent readers. . . . Well
organized and engaging." — Bulletin of the Center for Children's
Books
