Produktbeschreibung

A fascinating look --- in maps and stories --- at neighborhoods around the world! This unique illustrated map book explores the neighborhoods of 16 real children from around the world. Each child's story highlights what's important to them in their community, from their homes and schools to the places they play and the sights and sounds they encounter every day. Whether it's a big city, such as Amsterdam or Beijing, or a small community, such as Salt Spring Island in Canada or the village of Komanyana in Zambia, these places are special to the children who live there!
