«Camino a la escuela» is the non-fiction book by Marie-Claire Javoy, published by Editorial Alrevés in paperback (224 pages, in Spanish).
The book brings together testimonies from boys and girls aged ten to thirteen who live in remote places —a village in the savannah, the tundra, a mountain town— and travel up to twenty-two kilometres every day to get to school. Samuel, Carlitos and Zahira recount the difficulty of the journey and their determination to study in order to build a future.
The book is based on the documentary of the same name, winner of the César Award in 2014, and was translated from French by Bel Olid. This edition includes 50 photographs and 10 world map charts.
Aimed at readers interested in real stories of overcoming adversity and in testimonies about access to education in challenging environments.
