These books are not long, averaging 24 pages. They are billed a child's introduction to culture around the world." They live up to their billing. They start with a map of the country you are visiting and go through a "day" in the life of a child. You learn some of the native language, see some the foods eaten, and learn various things about the country. These facts can include common names for children, what to call your parents, sports, capital cities, famous landmarks and more.
Colourful pictures decorate each page and the print is large helping children be able to read the pages easily. A pronunciation list closes off each book.
