Synopsis

The Caribbean is home to around 36 million people. For some of them these islands in the sun are paradise but many others face a daily struggle to survive. Meet the people and find out how different their lives can be, from a farmer on Blue Mountain, Jamaica to the manager of a successful hotel in Havana, Cuba. Discover how the culture of the Caribbean has developed and how it is being changed by the influence of the USA. Includes maps and graphic panels showing statistics and fact boxes about size, flag, population, religion, currency and language.

Media Reviews
* 'This is a general geography series but with a twist; enough to encourage students to look at geography as a relevant and developing subject. Suitable for 10 to 10-year-olds.' - School Librarian Journal Winter 2002 * 'The specially commissioned interviews and photographs scattered throughout the publication provide a real sense of how local people view their islands. A truly exciting way to discover more about a distant locality.' - Junior Education, October 2002
