ALA Booklist (Wed Dec 06 00:00:00 CST 2023)

The Our World series (5 new titles) continues to pack quite a bit of culture for the youngest readers into an easy-to-handle board book. Each work opens at the beginning of a child's day in a specific country, moving through cultural moments and sharing native language with phonetic pronunciations throughout. All the titles notably feature a native author and illustrator, adding to the authenticity of the simple yet effective glimpses of each country. Argentina shares facts about where families live, transportation in the country, and activities like the feria (fair), tango, carousels, and more. The books feature cheerful illustrations in bold, primary colors, and each title concludes with two "A Day in [Country Name]" spreads that recap key terms and concepts from the book, including greetings, nighttime wishes, and counting to three in each native language.
