This Is How I Do It: One Day in the Life of You and 59 Real Kids from Around the World

A parent might reach for this book when their child starts asking questions about the world, wondering if kids in other countries eat the same breakfast or play the same games. This beautifully illustrated book follows a single day in the life of 59 real children from around the globe, from Italy and Japan to Peru and Uganda. It visually compares how each child experiences the same daily activities: waking up, eating, going to school, playing, and helping at home. The book is a wonderful tool for nurturing curiosity, empathy, and a sense of global belonging. It reassures children that while our lives can look very different on the surface, we all share common human experiences, making it a perfect conversation starter for ages 6 to 10.
