Africa is Not a Country

Enter into the daily life of children in over 20 of the 53 countries of modern Africa. Celebrate the extraordinary diversity of this vibrant continent as experienced by children at home, school, work, and play.

Some of the countries you’ll visit are not so well known, such as Seychelles, Benin, and Comoros; others are more familiar, such as Egypt, Nigeria, and South Africa. Visit big cities and small villages, towering mountains and wide desert expanses, ocean beaches and rainforests.

Learn that there are over 1000 languages in Africa and that Africa is bigger than the United States, China, Japan, and Europe put together. The beautiful illustrations and well-researched text will inspire young readers to do their own research. Paperback, 41 pages.
