This Is How We Do It: One Day in the Lives of Seven Kids from Around the World by Matt Lamothe
4.0
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.
