Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Gr 3-5-This colorful region is brought to life through the everyday lives of the children who live there. Geographical, historical, and cultural information is dispersed through the animated text and engaging, sharp, full-color photos. U.S. youngsters will be amazed to learn the differences and similarities of the children featured, and will find this an excellent tool for reports. A pronunciation guide for Spanish words is included. This attractive photo essay is a notable supplement to Erin Foley's Ecuador (Marshall Cavendish, 1995), which covers the entire country.-Maria Redburn, Irving Public Library, TX

A peek into the lives of Ecuadorian children,
By "barbarablock" (Beaverton, Oregon USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Children of the Ecuadorean Highlands (World's Children) (Library Binding)
I just bought this book for my eleven year old grandson, and it is a wonderful summary of information about Ecuadorian children. It tells just enough information to keep a child interested, and the photos are really beautiful. It has a good mix of photos and narrative, and it kept him enthralled as I read it to him. We visited Ecuador last year and he was especially interested in the culture ever since. We enjoyed this book so much I ordered several other "Children of" books from this same series.
