If You Were Me and Lived in... China: A Child's Introduction to Culture Around the World

Review\n"China is very large with different climates and the food is different depending on the region. I love that Ms Roman addressed that by talking about a dish or two from each major region. I recognized the dishes and the style from Mandarin to Cantonese as well as Szechuan and Shanghai. I love how she wove those all in using family." - circlingthroughthislife.com/2018/03/introducing-children-to-culture-around.html, blog "The book does a great job of teaching kids about the country in a way that kids understand and will love.

This is the opening line of this book and I loved how inviting it is. What an ingenious way to teach children about China. I found myself learning new things I didn't know about China (names, food, history, holidays) and the illustrations transported me there. My favorite part was the pronunciation guide at the back of the book." - N. N. Light, princessofthelight.wordpress.com, blog "This is such an amazing way to explore with your children. Your child will learn about the culture and the weather. They'll learn a few words of the language and see how very similar people all over the world are. It broadens their thinking in a very natural way. Books that teach and are fun make children want to learn more. I love this series." - Melanie Adkins, Have You Heard Book Reviews\n"I really like this, If You Were Me and Lived in..., series.
