Follow the real lives of seven kids from Italy, Japan, Iran, India, Peru, Uganda, and Russia for a single day! In Japan Kei plays Freeze Tag, while in Uganda Daphine likes to jump rope. But while the way they play may differ, the shared rhythm of their days-and this one world we all share-unites them. This genuine exchange provides a window into traditions that may be different from our own as well as a mirror reflecting our common experiences. Inspired by his own travels, Matt Lamothe transports readers across the globe and back with this luminous and thoughtful picture book.

Add a CommentI loved reading this book with my 7 year old. It shows images of children and their families doing chores, eating meals, and playing together from all over the world. This is a great book to share with your child to help them learn how different AND similar other cultures are. Highly recommended!
Beautiful illustration, good book for young kids to see diversity in the world.
What a lovely nonfiction picture book! It is lengthy, so it isn't necessarily meant to be read aloud in one sitting. The author notes sum up this one perfectly. Matt Lamothe writes "I hope to surprise readers with similarities between us, as well as teach readers about the things we do completely differently". A job well done!
