Customer Reviews

Great with one exception

We bought this book to take with us on a five-month stay in India, and it was a great resource for our two daughters (ages 7 and 4). The pictures and text are engaging, and the author gives a sense of what life is really like for these kids. He makes a special point of including tribal and Christian children, not just Hindus. Which brings me to the one exception to a glowing review: how in the world did he manage to avoid including a Muslim child?
