This book informs readers about many different cultures, including their history, appearance, houses, diet, and even holidays.
The illustrations in this story are beautiful and showcase the diversity of each nation.
My first impression of this story was it's usefulness in an ESL classroom. Students would love finding their own culture in the book as well as learning about their classmates homes. Other classes can find value in the abundance of vocabulary and the emphasis on accepting diversity and celebrating our differences.
