Clases De Ropa

Children's Literature - Ramirose Attebury Wendt

In American schools many students wear the same kinds of clothes as their classmates. This Level B book in the "Yellow Umbrella Books" series exposes readers to a wide variety of different types of clothing worn by children around the world. The clothes presented are divided into two types: warm weather clothing and cold weather clothing. Fur-trimmed parkas and clothes made from animal hides serve the same purpose as snowsuits, hats, and mittens—to keep children warm in the cold. On the other hand, light, loose wrap-around robes help keep people cool in hot weather, just like shorts and t-shirts do. The difference in clothing styles often depends on where a person lives. This book combines simple text with bright photographs and enables early readers to learn about the world beyond their own community. As such, it would make an excellent selection for a world cultures or geography lesson. End matter includes a combined glossary and index.
