If You Were Me and Lived In...Italy: A Child's Introduction to Cultures Around the World by Carole P RomanMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
This book was sent to me for an honest review.
This is the first time I've heard of this series of children's books. Can be read to younger children or read on their own by slightly older children (3-8 range is suggested). This book gives a glimpse into the history and culture of Italy and even teaches the pronunciation of Italian words related to food, history and geography. I think these books are a great series that can be used to teach kids about cultures and places different than their own to show that even though people from other places may eat unfamiliar foods or dress differently they all share a common thread.
In the 20-30 page range, with plenty of colorful illustrations. These books should inspire interest and questions from their young readers which can lead to many teaching opportunities about foreign places and peoples.
