Stars: *****

I received this book from Tundra Books for review.

It and another book, Mom and Me by Marla Stewart Konrad are the first two books in the new World Vision Canada Early Readers Series. All royalties from the sale of these books go to support World Vision’s work with children. More on that later.

Getting There is a picture book all about how people all around the world get places. for example: walk, run, ride a camel, bike, boats, swim, be carried and more. There are no illustrations in these books. Only real photos of real people are used for the series. The photos indeed do depict a wide variety of people from a wide variety of places.

I highly recommend the series as worthwhile books for your preschooler to learn basic concepts and all about the world.
