Each book describes the child's home life in a village or city, a typical school day, leisure time pursuits, home life (including food and meal times), religious worship, a festival and the working life of the child's parents. The books have been developed with the help of Geography and Literacy consultants, and offer a variety of elements, including letters, maps, photos, a fact file and glossary.
