About This Book

What's it really like to live in India? Come and experience a day in the life of one child, from the moment they get up to the moment they go to bed. See inside their home, their school and find out about all the things they do each day, what they do with their friends and what family life is like.

Our Review

This engaging cultural exploration invites young readers to experience a complete day through the eyes of an Indian child, offering a vivid window into daily life in another country. Children will follow the protagonist from morning routines through school activities, family meals, and time with friends, gaining authentic insight into Indian homes, education, and social customs. The narrative's chronological structure provides a comforting, familiar framework that makes foreign concepts accessible to young minds. This international perspective serves as an excellent introduction to global awareness and cultural diversity for the picture book crowd.

What distinguishes this book is its intimate, ground-level view of Indian culture through the relatable lens of a child's everyday experiences, from household details to playground games. The approach feels genuinely personal rather than like a textbook, allowing children to naturally draw comparisons between their own lives and their Indian peer's world. Families seeking to broaden their children's horizons will find this cultural portrait both educational and warmly engaging, planting early seeds of global citizenship through simple, shared human experiences.
