Synopsis
A look at how babies around the world are carried and what they see from their various vantage points. For example, in Guatemala, Rosha is carried in a shawl against her mother's chest and watches her mother making tortillas. In Central Africa, Bonyo is carried on his grandfather's hip and sees his father discovering a honeybee hive in the rain forest. Color illustrations accompany the text.

Explores the ways in which people from a variety of cultures carry their young ones, and describes what children see and learn as they are carried.

Publisher's Note
Through a steamy rain forest in Brazil, along a river in Papua New Guinea, across a frozen inlet in the artic, this book takes young children on a far-reaching journey to discover how babies worldwide are carried and what they see from their unique vantage points. The text and full-color illustrations are supplemented by an extensive glossary about the 11 cultures featured in this book.

Industry Reviews
"Both a wonderful introduction to cultural anthropology and a really nice picture book, it will make any child's world a little bigger."
NAPRA ReView - Linda Skye Smith

"This is an exquisite book, for the detailed, folk-art style gouache illustrations, its overall design, and the wealth of information it includes."
