Catch That Goat!

Summary: Belongs on every World Citizen's book shelf
Review: Children of today are growing up in a world more unified than ever before! Help your little ones understand life the world over with this lively glimpse into a Nigerian marketplace. It's colorful and fun, full of cultural references, unusual language, and wonderful terms of respect (for example, Ayoka talks to 'Oni Breadi' aka: man older than me who sells bread!). This book made my four year old want to visit Nigeria!

Summary: Great Illustrations
Review: I decided to buy this book for my grandchildren after first seeing it in the public library. The story is very understandable. The illustrations show very well the marketplace, the activities there, and a different style of living. I highly recomend it.

Summary: The Market
Review: The fine illustrations show marketplace details showing a lifestyle very different from ours. The story is entertaining to children because of the mischevious goat. I bought it for my grandchildren because I want them to understand that there are many styles of living.
