A successor to Children Around the World, Families Around the World invites young readers to visit fourteen children from different countries and learn about their families. Each child's story fills a two-page spread, is told in the first person and begins with a greeting in the child's native language. The book presents a wide range of homes, locations, customs and activities — from life on a Texas cattle farm to tending a family goat in Kenya to moving with a nomadic family in Mongolia — and shows variety in family structures including single parents, multiracial parents and same-sex parents. Bright, enthusiastic illustrations by Jessica Rae Gordon accompany each story. The book also includes suggestions for lesson plans, a glossary and a pronunciation guide for foreign words, making it useful for exploring cultures, geography and family relationships.
