Children at home learn about kids in all other parts of the world, from the desert regions of the Middle East and the rice farmers of Southeast Asia to city-dwelling children in China, Japan, South America, Australia, and Europe.
Younger children will love this book, each of them giving a child's-eye view of a different aspect of the great wide world. Full-color, beautifully detailed illustrations on every page are rendered in a naturalistic style, with easy-to-read captions that explain what's happening in each picture. Teachers in early grades will value these books as basic introductions to social studies-but Around the World books are much more than textbooks. They're attractive, fun-filled volumes that kids will want to own and pick up to satisfy their curiosity about people and places all over the world. Many subject-related activities are suggested in each book. Most activities require guidance from parents or teachers. (Ages 3 and up).
