Straight to the point It really points out the main things of Guatemalan History, gives a clear idea of what Guatemala is all about for the kids.
Bite Size Facts from Guatemala My three year old daughter, adopted from Guatemala, loved this book. It offers bite size pieces of information about the country in a fun way. She even brought it to her preschool on her show and tell day.
We love it for our 3yo and 8yo The pictures really tell the story of Guatemala - the fast facts you think of first when thinking about Guatemala. We think its perfect for the younger age group, but it would also work with children a bit older. Our 3yo who was recently adopted from Guatemala loves this book along with the Guatemala Q&A book. They go well together. Our 8 yo loves to read this book to her sister. So, they both learn and remember Guatemala.
Good, but not what I expected. From the title and cover of this book, one might think the book is for kids 2-7, but it's actually aimed at older kids. Other than that, the book is still satisfying, delivering fun, fast facts in an easily digestible format. Very informative.
The beauty is in the pictures and passages. I absolutely think you should have this book as part of your collection. The pictures come to life along with the description. The wording is simple and sweet. I am a first grade teacher and taught using this book. All my students enjoyed the memory this book brings to life. Vivid pictures and colors are an absolute gift from the artist.
