Disclosure Policy

I started this family travl blog, The World Is A Book, to share our experiences traveling around the world when my kids were a lot younger while working a full time job and the kids in traditional schools with many activities. It also encouraged our readers to travel with their kids and hopefully, inspire you to travel to many of the places we explored.
