In the foreword Alexandra Terzian, wrote, "I believe the best way to understand and appreciate another culture is by meeting its people, eating its food, listening to its music, and by creating its arts and crafts. I have collected artifacts. . .from many distant lands, and have. . .visit[ed] museums the world over. . .[I have] seen authentic art and artifacts created by people hundreds of years ago as well as today." From the book's cover, "In this hand-on multicultural experience, children make ceremonial art to display, as well as practical artifacts to wear and use. . ." This book is indexed and has numerous projects appropriate for children ages 3 to 9 years old.

Wonderful book to inspire art, celebrate culture, and teach appreciation for diversity and being proud of where we all come from. ( )
