A bright and colorful look at what homes look like all over the world! I loved how each home had something special and unique that was pointed out. Emilee M, Reviewer
My children and I loved this book. There are nice, colorful illustrations to keep the little ones' attention. Each dwelling examined is shown and a child living there explains how it's built, how the family uses tools, electricity, water, and how they obtain food. My seven-year-old loved learning about different cultures from around the world and how children his age live and spend time in other parts of the world. We really enjoyed exploring via this book; it would be perfect for kids through elementary school age at home and in the classroom. Megan G, Educator
How Kids Live Around the World introduces children to where other children live. A child presents each individual style of shelter. Information is well presented in both words and illustrations. Educator 288720
