Time to check out Peru! The country is a lively one with old customs. It's scenery will take your breath away. We can learn so much from talking with the locals and visiting historic places. I know we will all have fun.

This book really makes learning a joy. I found littles who enjoyed every word. They had tons of questions too. The writing and illustrations help parents make learning an adventure not a chore. Your littles will love this book too.

I found no issues.

I gave this one 5 cheers out ...more

What a wonderful teaching aid for children to learn about other countries. Kids learn how other kids look; their skin and hair colors, their clothing, to even what kind of names they could be called and what they eat. The books are colorful and have easy pronunciation guide plus definitions of all the new words in the child's culture.

I learned so much about Peru, things I didn't know. So these books would give adults a bit of history of Peru (or any other country). My hat's off to Carole P Roman ...more

If you want to learn more about Peru the Ms. Roman’s book is perfect for young children. The pictures are beautifully illustrated and fun to read or follow along with.

Peru is located in the western part of South America. The climate is not the same in all places since the Amazon rain forest is wet and the dry plains.

Many of us might of heard of Lima which is the capital and has a population of over nine million people. Lima means talker, which is an old Indian word.

"If You Were Me and Lived in... Peru" is a fun, yet educational book for kids. Kids get a glimpse of what it is like to live in Peru through the eyes of children. There are some facts about the landscape, history, types of food, types of games, and customs. There is a pronunciation guide at the back of the book with some mixed within the text. There are also descriptions and definitions of some of the words in the book.
This is a great book for kids to learn about other countries and cultures. ...more
