There are currently more than six billion people on the planet This enormous number can be difficult to grasp, especially for a child. But what if we imagine the whole world as a village of just 100 people?In this village22 people speak a Chinese dialect20 earn less than a dollar a day32 are of Christian faith17 cannot read or write 39 are under 19 years oldIn a time when parents and educators are looking to help children gain a better understanding of the world's peoples and their ways of life, "If the World Were a Village" offers a unique and objective resource. By exploring the lives of the 100 villagers, children will discover that life in other nations is often very different from their own. The shrunk-down statistics -- some surprising, some shocking -- and David Smith's tips on building "world-mindedness" will encourage readers to embrace the bigger picture and help them to establish their own place in the global village."If the World Were a Village" is part of CitizenKid: A collection of books that inform children about the world and inspire them to be better global citizens.
