This review is from: On the Same Day in March: A Tour of the World's Weather (Library Binding)
This is a good book to cover geographical effects of seasons with young children but could have been much better had the author chosen a day in winter/summer rather than spring/fall. Also, some of the slang to specific regions (eg. willy-willies in Australian section) should have been defined. Overall though, it was a useful education book and the kids enjoyed the perky text and lively illustrations.

Amazing for the classroom,
This review is from: On the Same Day in March: A Tour of the World's Weather (Library Binding)
As teacher education student, I have been on the lookout for quality children's literature. On the Same Day in March is one of the best books I have found for integrating different subjects. Lessons in Language Arts, Science, and Social Studies nearly write themselves as Singer uses a rich vocabulary to describe different types of weather, agriculture, geography and cultures all over the world! Although the book by itself lacks some of the "entertainment value" very young children demand, it is excellent for 2nd and 3rd graders.
5.0 out of 5 stars

This review is from: On the Same Day in March: A Tour of the World's Weather (Paperback)
This book really helped my kids understand that not everyplace in the world was having the same weather, seasons, etc. that we were.
