Super cool and informative book! All of the photographs are of different homes and houses all over the world. From tiny house boats in India to The White House, this book shows the homes and differences in socio-economic status around the world. Young readers can really benefit from this book and learning how others live, but it shows no matter how we live, or what we have, a family's love is what makes a house a home!
This book is more about houses than it is about homes. It is a good depiction of the structural living conditions across the world.
Ages 3-8
This book has wonderful photographs of the different kinds of homes people live in. This book explores the different things homes can be made out of, the different areas homes are built in, and the different ways homes are built. Will give the students a good perspective on how others live.

An informational book all about different types of houses around the world. Great for 3 year olds due to the interesting, realistic pictures and fun topic.
This books takes a look at different ways people live around the world. A great book to show children that just because we live in apartments and houses in America does not mean that is how it is for everyone.
