Italy? (What's It Like To Live In)

by JillianPowell (Author)

Synopsis

Find out what the landscape, weather, transport, farming, food, shopping, houses, working life, festivals and having fun is like in Italy. This work includes a large, colour map of Italy with an inset map showing its position in the world. Unfamiliar words are in bold and can be found in the glossary at the book of the book. A 'scrapbook' spread shows things that children might collect from Italy to put in a scrapbook, such as tickets, coins and postcards. There is a small list of Italian words at the end of the book, which children might use if they were to visit Italy.

Media Reviews
Most children only glimpse other countries on brief holidays, without exposure to the inhabitants' real lives. This series goes a long way to filling this knowledge gap...Extra value comes from a glossary... and a simple index - perfect for a child beginning to learn how to use information books.' -- The Guardian's Childrens Books Supplement 20031004
