Shelter is a basic need for people around the world, but what do homes look like in different countries? Readers find out as they read letters from kids around the world describing what kinds of homes they live in. The charming text provides essential facts about a variety of countries, and it also invites readers to compare and contrast life in each place they learn about--as well as to think about their home is similar to and different from the ones they see. Vibrant photographs, detailed maps, and illustrated characters enhance this exercise in appreciating diversity.
