This review gave a brief summary of the book, Moses Goes to School. It says that this book and the other books about Moses by this author are intended for children kindergarten to third grade. It goes on to discuss the different ethnicities and nationalities shown through the illustrations in this book. This review commends the book as being good for children to learn about the disability of being deaf.

Overall I thought that this review was fairly the same things that I thought about this book. It was not a very long review for such a book and I agreed with everything this person had to say about the book itself. This review seemed to be just a reminder of what the book was about and how it would be helpful as a diverse literature book in a classroom not only for the disability aspect but also because of the diverse illustrations throughout.
