This blog was created by Lori (no surname given), a mother of two and special education teacher of 10, who got tired of reading “the same old picture books.” Most posts contain reviews of books pertaining to a specific country, often found at her local library. A resources page includes annotated links to sites for teachers and parents that explore geography, culture, and art. Of special interest: a list of international holiday books arranged in order by the calendar year. [dj]
