Description

A picture book collaboration with World Vision that celebrates life the world over!

This delightful series is the result of the collaboration between Tundra Books and World Vision Canada to bring an array of exceptional photos from around the world to very young children. Each book centers on a universal theme, familiar by its very nature, yet new due to faraway settings and ethnic, cultural, and socio-economic diversity. Each remarkable photo essay will foster discussion, observation, and many smiles as children compare and contrast their own experience to that of others. Watch for further books in this series.

Librarian Reviews

Grand (World Vision Early Readers)

This is a loving visual essay about the bond between grandparents and grandchildren, no matter where they live or what the circumstances. Written with simple text, this book talks about the many ways one generation can interact with another.
