It’s never too early to start teaching children about the world around them. In If You Were Me and Lived in…Greece , early learners get a taste of what their life would be like if they lived in Greece while being introduced to the birthplace of democracy. This book is the latest installment of the educational series about the cultures of the world that speaks to young children about the topics that interest them, such as the foods people eat, the names of boys and girls, and the activities that children their age living in a foreign land are likely to engage in. This exciting visit to Greece also introduces the important concept of democracy to children and highlights some of the other cultural contributions that Greece has made to Western civilization. Basic information is offered in a playful way that won’t overwhelm children.
Praise
“As with the other books in this series, the facts presented along with Roman’s simplistic format are a great stepping off point for cultural dialogues ranging from traditions, western civilization, and home life in Greece to name a few. If You Were Me and Lived in Greece: A Child’s Introduction to Cultures Around the World is a great choice for elementary grade readers.”—The Children’s Book Review
