Visit 20 different homes around the world in this vibrant and colourful follow up to This Is Our World and Celebrate With Us!.
The tour is truly global, as we explore a terraced house in the UK before zipping over to a houseboat in the Netherlands. Then, it's a quick jump to a high-rise apartment in Tokyo, before travelling to a cave house in Tunisia. Our guides are children who tell us about their unique homes and surrounding environments, opening a door into diverse cultures around the world.
Gorgeous illustrations by Asa Gilland fill the homes and their inhabitants with warmth and humour, accompanied by Valerie Wilding's entertaining and informative text.
This is the ideal book for young children who long to travel the world and see how other people live.
Valerie Wilding loves writing for children because it makes her happy, and she can’t imagine doing anything else. She was a teacher for many years, then a school librarian, but writing took over and that’s how she spends her days. It’s the most challenging and the most satisfying work she’s ever done. Valerie writes fiction and non-fiction and especially enjoys narrative non-fiction, where lots of information is wrapped up in an exciting story. She has written over a hundred books, on all sorts of subjects, and she likes to bring a touch of humour to everything she does.
Åsa Gilland is a Swedish illustrator who loves all things retro, quirky imagery, and folk art themes. She studied interior design at Accademia Italiana Moda and has 20 years of experience in illustration. She illustrated Kingfisher’s This is Our World, This is Our World: Celebrate With Us and We Are All Different.
