5.0 out of 5 stars Informative child-appropriate view of family life in Vietnam, August 7, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Vietnam (Families Around the World) (Library Binding)

We bought this book for our daughter, age 18 months and adopted in Vietnam, thinking she would appreciate it when she was older. I'm sure she will, but we're all enjoying it now also. Having visited and loved Vietnam, we've been disappointed in some other children's books about the country. Some focus on negative differences -- the relative standard of living and the results of the war -- so we found this book's very family-oriented description really refreshing. It's full of great detailed photos, which make it interesting for all ages.
