Notes:
- Includes bibliographical references and indexes.
- Why read books from other countries? — Children’s book illustration and culture — Reading across cultures — Africa and the Middle East — Asia — Australia and New Zealand — Canada — Europe — Latin America and the Caribbean.
- Readers are usually not concerned with where their books were first published: what they care about is the story told through words and pictures. Internationally published books provide a shift in perspective, based in the cultural values and beliefs of the writer/illustrator and reader. Stan provides information on the importance of diversifying your collection, and a substantial annotated listing of books, publishers, and people to start you off.
