This book is unique in that it gives children a "snapshot" view of 43 children from around the world. The children live in places as diverse as New Jersey, Mongolia, and Argentina. Children from industrialized countries, developing nations, busy cities, rural communities, tribal cultures, and more are included. The book is divided roughly by continent (North America, South America, Europe, Africa, Asia, and Southeast Asia/Australasia), and then unique children from each region get a one or two-page spread to tell about their lives. The children are all shown with their families. Although most have traditional family situations, the book was updated in 2016, and there are now several single-parent families, a divorced couple, a polygamist family (p. 42), and one child's sister is noted as having a wife (p. 14). The book includes tons of photographs and shows and describes their family, home, clothes, prized possessions, food, friends, favorite games, chores, and other aspects of their daily life. Most of the information is given in the captions of the photos and an intro about how old the child is, where they live, and how the family supports itself. The kids are 6-11 years old, and while they have a large variety of backgrounds, beliefs, and cultures, it is interesting to see how much they have in common. 3-11 children are included from every region. 80 pgs, hc. ~ Rachel
