Another great addition to the If you were me and lived in…series is here! Now we get a glimpse
into life in China. We get a geography
lesson about the area which makes of the country such as the rivers, desert and
grassland areas. China was founded by the Qin Dynasty over two thousand years
ago. We learn about the capital city, Beijing, as the center of political, cultural
and educational center. We learn the
popular names for boys and girls and endearments for Mom and Dad. We visit the
great sites of China such as the Great Wall and the Terracotta Warriors. We
also learn about the regional food. Mandarin in the north, Cantonese in the
south, and Szechuan in the southwest. As
well as holidays and festivals popular in Chinese culture.
I love this series. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it
again. This series is a great and engaging way to introduce children to the
various cultures around the world. I love that this book gives an interesting
look into China. I highly recommend this book and the other titles in this
series for any family and classroom.
