Yes, even when they're dead writers are still full of surprises - and the eight in this book are more surprising than most.

З книги «Це наш світ» ми дізнаємося, як живуть дітлахи в різних куточках нашої планети. Уявіть лишень: дехто з них плаває з черепахами на півдні Тихого океану, хтось їздить до міста снігоходом із диких земель Аляски, а хтось дістається школи підвісною дорогою над долиною в Андських горах. Усі ми живемо по-своєму в різних куточках нашої планети. Та існує багато речей, які нас об’єднують. Ця добра і проста ідея наскрізно пронизує всю книгу.

Книга «Ми всі такі різні» розповідає про те, якими різними бувають люди. У ній ми познайомимося з дітками з однієї школи, з їхніми вчителями, батьками й опікунами. Усі вони мають досить різні родини, вподобання та неприйняття, національності та культури, можливості та особливості,.. але також і багато спільного. Ця книга неймовірно добра. Вона вчить з повагою ставитися до інакшості інших та радіти тому, що ми всі такі різні, і кожен з нас ─ особливий.

This Is Our World, written by Tracey Turner, is a colourful celebration of our planet’s cultural and environmental diversity – an unforgettable journey that brings the people, customs and wildlife of twenty places around the world vividly to life for young readers.
The guides are children who tell us about the animals, plants and weather that they encounter; the feasts and festivals they enjoy; and the clothes they wear, the way they learn, the languages they speak, and the sports and games they play. The tour is truly global, as we journey from Australia’s desolate Red Centre to bustling Beijing, from the windswept Outer Hebrides to the rock houses of Cappadocia in Turkey, via the Amazon rainforest, New York City, the Siberian tundra, and a floating village in Cambodia.
This is both a beautiful gift book and a highly-accessible home reference, sure to foster an interest in the wider world, in travel, in diversity and in conservation. It teaches us that despite its countless languages, customs and traditions, it really is a small world after all.
