Reviews

[Ana Tejada · Rating 5 out of 5]

This Story allow children to see how different families have different cultures and that children around the world do not do the same as them. In other cultures children have to work on fields and help the parents to collect food or even get the work done. When we expose children to this stories we are teaching them to have respect for other culture and value it as well.
