    Summary: 
    "For fans of Aleksandra Mizielinska and Daniel Mizielinska's Maps, and our own Around the World series, is this illustrated map book that explores the neighborhoods of 16 kids around the world. Based on real kids and their families, the book highlights significant places in the community through the child's eyes, such as where they live, where they go to school and their favorite places to play. Where We Live is filled with fascinating stories that depict what real life is like for kids from every corner of the globe. Bruno in Antarctica has to climb out the window when the snow mound blocks his front door. Namisha lives in a small village in Zambia and has to stay home from school whenever there's a hippo sighting. And in the evenings, Anani in Ethiopia helps his mother with the coffee ceremony at their home, where the community gathers. Author Margriet Ruurs is a frequent guest speaker at international schools and an avid world traveler. The stories featured in the book are based on people she has met on her travels. The end matter includes an author's note, activities to help kids make connections between the children in the book and to their own lives, a glossary and an index. Where We Live is both a valuable resource for learning about global cultures and an insightful look at how much kids around the world have in common."--Provided by publisher.
