I liked reading this book because it is an engaging nonfiction book and presents a typical day's activities and daily nutrition of various children in the world through their point of views. This book features different types of food/dishes cooked and eaten by children from various parts of the world, such as South Africa, Mexico, Thailand, France, and India. Twas especially impressed by how AA from Thailand is able to cook eggs when she is still very young. I also liked how this book show more provides information on various types of food by telling a story through the children's point of view. The main idea of this book is to expose to readers to multiculturalism by informing them of various dishes from different parts of the world. show less
A great book for children to learn the history and how children live in different countries.The book focuses on eight children from different places of the world. It shows how they wake up in the morning, their routes to school, and their role in their households. Children would probably like to see how young children live thats around their age in different places.
Ages 7-10
A children's book about different cultures and what a day in their life would look like in their country.
This is a good book to include in the classroom because it can show students different perspectives of other kids just like them, and it can also introduce them to new cultures.

This informational book is about children's experiences with water around the world. The book focuses on 6 children from each continent of the world, including the U.S.A., Peru, Mauritania, Bangladesh, Ethiopia, and Tajikistan. It is a booky aimed to get young children (particularly in developed countries) about other children their age's experiences with water; how they value it, how they use it, and how they are able to obtain. I would have students in 4th-6th grade read this book, show more although 3rd graders may be able to understand it. show less
