All About U.S.: A Look at the Lives of 50 Real Kids from Across the United States

Great book! Teaching my children about the 50 states and this is such a sweet addition to our unit study.

With extremely detailed illustrations and authentic, real children's narratives, the book showcases a variety of family structures—houseboats, yurts, single-parent households, and more—and also highlights the strength of children facing health challenges. It masterfully intertwines the extraordinary and the everyday, fostering empathy and understanding as it reveals both the similarities and differences in kids' lives. This heartwarming survey is not just a treasure for children, but also for adults and educators, inspiring curiosity and acceptance in the next generation.

Such a beautiful book! This book is so well written and illustrated. A child could spend a long time reading just a few pages!

This book is so wonderful at teaching young kids about the ways in which other kids live around the U.S. I love seeing my son's face light up when he has something in common with a kid from across the country. Makes us feel more connected. Highly recommend

My 9-year-old is obsessed with this book. I love that there is a map of the US in the intro. My daughter is always asking me how far away places are and has no concept of geography, so it's perfect to flip back to the map to see where these places are in relation to where we live. Such a great book with SO much content and beautiful illustrations and design.
