Format:Paperback
This is a fantastic book to teach multicultural topics to young children. The pictures are bright and engaging and there is some fantastic interesting text. I used it in a lesson and got some great comments and a fantastic literacy session out of it. I think it would be a great book for a homes topic as well and I intend to use it again.

This book is excellent. I have used it with my reception and year 1 class. The pictures are lovely and it is simple enough for early years with out overloading them with too much information.
