Understand together

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 21 years ago

This is a great book and the whole family can learn together. It is simple, easy to read and understand yet very detailed on the explanations and descriptions. Everybody can learn and it is a great way to open the world to your children for understanding who other cultures celebrate. A very nice book.
