I lile this book, but it's pretty Euro-centric; there's np spread from China or India, two of the most populous countries in the world. ( ) Taking the idea of the second as a starting point, Portuguese author Isabel Minhós Martins highlights twenty-three different occurrences that all happen at the same instant, all around the world. From an elevator getting stuck between two floors in New York City to a boat unexpectedly caught in a storm in the Baltic Sea, from a package arriving at its destination in Karabuk, Turkey to a man resting on a bench in Tokyo, there are millions of things happening at any given moment. Originally published in Portugal as O mundo num segundo, this entertaining and educational picture-book offers a snapshot of the world as it unfolds in one single second. Referencing concepts such as time, and geographic distance and diversity, The World In a Second is the sort of book that curious children will enjoy poring over, and that will lead them to think about the disparate but interconnected nature of the world and its many residents. The bold, graphic artwork by Bernardo P. Carvalho makes the perusing of this book a distinct aesthetic pleasure, while the afterword, in which the location and exact local time of each scene in the book is listed, fills in specific additional information. Recommended to anyone looking for children's books that address the idea of multiple events unfolding at one time, worldwide, or who just want a picture-book that celebrates our diverse world. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
