Outstanding culinary journey with the common theme of bread

Wonderful photos of adults and children from around the world cooking, eating, selling, and otherwise enjoying bread, with minimal text.

Great images for kids and adults

We may all live in different places, speak different languages and end up having completely different life experiences, but many of us have a common food. My wife and I love this book as much as our children do. It is very simple, extremely genuine and makes me want to try all the world's bread.

It's a Small World After All.

This little book talks about bread. There aren't very many words, but the few that there are augment a child's vocabulary, yet are easy to understand. The most important part of this book are the pictures. Using pictures of people all over the world eating all kinds of different bread, helps children to begin to understand the bigger world around them. The book also illustrates how even though some things are the same, they can also be quite different. The book also contains a helpful section at the end for parents and other educators. It's a small world after all.

a low-key intro to the cross-cultural world

A terrific collection of photos that introduces both similarities and difference. The text is very simple, but more info for parents to explain is included in the back, so this can serve very young and not quite as young children. (My daughter enjoyed it at 1 1/2)

Great photos give children a global view

an interesting way of introducing young children to the world and cultures around them. Bread is one of the few things all people have in common and the realism of the photographs leave the reader with a broader knowledge of this small world.
