Product Description

A celebration of diverse world cultures from the brilliant Peter Spier, one of the most beloved children''s illustrators of the last sixty years.

In this breathtaking tour around the world, young readers can pore over the many details that make each country and culture unique and special—illuminated by Spier''s detailed and witty illustrations of festivals and holidays, foods, religions, homes, pets, and clothing. In print since 1980, this classic, boundary-pushing book is a must-have in today''s global age—a tribute to the ways in which we as the world''s citizens are at once both different and the same.
