The book is filled with pictures of the writers or pictures about them to help you look at the whole person. This book takes readers on a taster's trip around the world, sampling the different kinds of foods children have for lunch. In other places, they may have a crispy green salad or a hearty gumbo. Marilyn Singer's rhythmic lullaby, with bright illustrations by Frane Lessac, gently transports children through different time zones and distant lands. Young readers will travel far from home, then back again, on a glorious bedtime journey.
People is a delightful book for adults of all ages as well as for children.
The reader is entertained and educated at the same time. Each lively page shows what variety there is in people. But we get a deeper message too, namely that we can live harmoniously together by understanding and accepting one another.
