Such a wonderful book.
This book clearly defines cultural diversity at its finest.

I really appreciate the concept of this book and I think a lot of kids will enjoy reading this. It really bothered me, though, that all 7 of the kids lived with a mother, a father and siblings, which shows zero diversity.

Liat buku ini dari storynya lauraiz, kebetulan ada di Scribd. Kalo di versi digitalnya layoutnya kurang rapi jadi kurang bisa menikmati. Kayaknya lebih bagus dalam bentuk hardcopy deh karena layoutnya gak aneh. Tapi ceritanya bagus kok

A bit of a "day in the life" of several young children, each from a different area of the world. Each page includes the topic ("This is what I eat for breakfast.") along with descriptions and drawings. My favorite was "This is how I write my name" and includes the style of alphabet used.
Children can see what is similar to their own lives and what is not, as well as noting commonalities among several of the children (sleeping on wooden beds, eating bread, etc.).
Author/illustrator Matt LaMothe had each willing child take photos of their meals, etc., then he used those--along with emailed information from the families--to create his illustrations.
At the end, the book includes an actual photo of each child's family.
I love this sweet look at children around the world.

Menarik sekali melihat bagaimana potret kehidupan sehari-hari yang sifatnya universal seperti tempat tinggal, perjalanan ke sekolah, menu makan, dan ruang kelas menjadi begitu unik bagi setiap individu.
Selain keberagaman, buku ini membuat saya lebih bersyukur. Bahwa saya masih bisa makan, punya keluarga, rumah, juga akses terhadap pendidikan. Saya harap setiap anak di dunia ini juga tercukupi akan semua kebutuhan mendasar itu.
Tak lupa, penutup bukunya juga manis sekali. Meski hidup dengan banyak perbedaan, kita semua tetap tinggal berdampingan di bawah naungan langit yang sama.
