Here's an exciting trip around the world, written and illustrated for boys and girls who are just beginning to learn about other people from other lands. Though millions of people live on our planet, each one of us is different and unique. Different kids have different color eyes, hair, and skin, and they live in places that are each different from all other places. Boys and girls open this book to meet children in China, Alaska, and Japan. They meet a little boy from Yugoslavia who was injured in the recent war, and a little girl in Namibia, Africa, who travels from place to place with her nomadic family. Young readers discover that although kids around the world are different, they all like many of the same things -- for instance, playing and having fun with family and friends.
