diversity

I loved how the character wanders through her neighborhhod and experiences a world of cultures. She gets to taste breads from all over the world. I feel it sends the message that although we are all so very different we are all still part of the same community.

Wonderful Book!

This is a great book. I read it with my 2 pre-schoolers, and they love it. I disagree that it is not a bed time story. We read it anytime during the day. We have been making the bread at home as a project. The recipes are delicious (esp the coconut bread). I would highly recommend this book as an educational and fun book for children.
