Editorial Reviews

"I'm embarrassed to admit that this book is aimed at kids, but it's full of information about the world that I didn't know (and probably 'should' know) as an adult! For instance, that Panama uses US currency, and how Saudi Arabia gets their water. What's also great about this book is the emphasis on careers and the wide variety of career ideas featured. The chapters, though PACKED with information, are short; which makes it a non-overwhelming read. I left this book wanting to check out her other books!" ~ Christy Burbridge

"This book is educational and entertaining. I enjoyed reading the stories of different countries and states and learning fun facts. It felt as though I was on a journey myself. This is a must read for kids and should be in schools." ~ Joi Kelly

"I thoroughly enjoyed reading the short essays from different young people, of all ages, from many different parts of the world. Each had an interesting way of revealing something--historical and/or current--about where they lived, and about themselves. What a great way for young people to learn about other people, who live, speak differently than they do, but have similar feelings, experiences, goals, and aspirations. Older people can learn something, too!" ~ Janice S. Ellis
