My culture - Children's Literature
Basic aspects of culture are introduced in ten short (two-page) chapters, including a definition of culture, languages, clothing, foods, sports, music, holidays, celebrations, and the arts. The language page includes “hello” in five different languages. Featured foods include pizza from Italy, sushi from Japan, chips and salsa from Mexico, salad from Greece, and curry from India. The accompanying photograph shows a woman and a child eating an Oriental meal with chopsticks. The six sports shown are all common in the United States.
