Based on the award-winning book, If the World Were a Village is a children's DVD that postulates: what if we imagined the whole world as a village of 100 people? Drawing young viewers on a journey of discovery through the lives of each of the 100 villagers, If the World Were a Village educates about the diversity of languages we speak, foods we eat, where we live, the religions we follow, and more. A delightful exposure to different cultures across the globe, highly recommended especially for public library children's DVD shelves. If the World Were a Village has English, French, and Spanish language options, as well as English subtitles. 25 minutes, closed-captioned, teacher's guide available. Also of interest to pique young people's curiosity about other cultures is the "Families of the World" DVD series, including the recently released "Families of Guatemala".
