With her If You Were Me series, Carol P. Roman has provided
children with a trip around the world, and the next stop is Greece . The series
introduces unique cultures around the world by answering the questions that children
would ask.
The tour of Greece
begins with a sense of place and history. Next you are introduced to the common
given names of Greece
and what young children call their parents and grandparents. Also explained are local foods, toys and
games, holidays, and what you would visit if you were a tourist.
The story is accompanied by interesting and
colorful illustrations. There is also a pronunciation guide at the back of the
book. As an example, Koukla (kouk-la)-doll. This is another in a series of
great reference books for children.
