"Houses" is a book all about the different types of houses you'll see around the world. It starts off with showing homes that are typical for most people in America- single family homes and apartment buildings. The way these types of homes are built is explained, with the types of materials that are used and who builds the houses being mentioned as well. The book then begins talking about homes that the young reader may not be aware of. Igloos are shown, though are explained to be temporary shelters made while the Inuit are out hunting. The process of making an igloo is shown, as well as the actual homes that the Inuit live in. Homes from hot countries are shown on the next page, where the typical building materials of "hot climate" homes are included, as well as examples of homes from Cameroon, Mali, Nigeria, Egypt, and New Mexico. More temporary homes are shown, with Native American tepees, Tuareg tents, summer Siberian tents, and Mongolian felt tents being featured. Raised homes and homes that are used by multiple families are also included. The last few pages feature houses that can travel with the people living in them: mobile homes, trailers, caravans, tents, house boats, submarines, and even the space stations that astronauts live in. The last page tells the reader that they too can make a house, whether it's made out of pillows, blankets, or even a cardboard box. Although this book is really simple, I really learned a lot! I like that the book breaks the common stereotypes that igloos and tepees are permanent homes, and I also like that so many homes from around the world are shown as well. This book would be great for an introduction on homes seen in different cultures. ( ) keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen
