If the World Were a Village
David J. Smith
This is a beautiful and unique book, which explains facts about the world's population in a simple and fascinating way. Instead of unimaginable billions, it presents the whole world as a village of just 100 people. We soon find out that 22 speak a Chinese dialect and that 17 cannot read or write. We also discover the people's religions, their education, their standard of living, and much much more… This book provokes thought and illicits questions. It cannot fail to inspire children's interest about the geography of the world, about citizenship and about different customs and cultures, whether they read it at home or at school.
