I read this in my Illustrating Children's Books class. Ilse recommended it to me because of the similarity between his work and Richard Scarry's. Like Richard Scarry this book is done with loose ink drawings and watercolor and features some scenes that are very busy, while other smaller scenes are similarly labeled. This book isn't about animal people though, it's about human people and how though we're all different we're also all the same.

I read this to my son for school. A very detailed, yet simple children's book about all the people of the world. The fascinating illustrations will probably make this book a favorite to read over and over again. :)
