"Children around the world have vastly different lives - different cultures, different geography, socio-economic realities, differing access to health and education. They speak different languages and eat different foods. But despite these differences, they all share common needs: the need to communicate, to feel loved and protected, the need to have a place to live, the need to learn, to eat, to play, and to dream for the future. Based on extensive research, these thought-provoking snapshots of various cultures and customs from all over the world promote global citizenship and show that, despite our many, and important, differences, people around the globe are also similar in many ways."-- Provided by publisher.
