Supposedly I bought this book just for a gift for someone's kid. Yes, the gift was given, but not before I enjoyed it a few times! Anyone who enjoys the diversity of living structures will enjoy the kid-centered tone, amenable to inspiring childlike wonder no matter what your age, of the descriptions of various habitats around the world, most of them "green". I've always loved kid-level technical drawings, as done here: hand-drawn, colorful illustrations of the different areas of a mudhouse, a round house, an underground house -- with people depicted living in them. May make your kid want to grow up to be an architect.

I was impressed and delighted by this book! I bought it for our little boy, and he couldn't put it down ... The photographs are amazing, and the information provided in the book is priceless - for children and adults alike... This excellent book will be a wonderful addition to any library! Thank you!!!

Great way to teach a child about how differently we live our lives around the world. My 7 yr old daughter was really enlightened by this book. I love it too! A keeper.
