Awards & Recognition

    School Library Journal praise for the Our World series

    Praised as offering “solid glimpses of faraway places” in an evocative and inviting style.

AlbakiReads Editorial

A first glimpse of everyday life in Ethiopia

A day in Ethiopia takes shape through food, outdoor activities and family meals: breakfast includes chechebsa, while dinner gathers everyone around a mesob. Amharic words appear throughout with pronunciation guides, and end matter offers further insights into life in the country. Written by Ethiopian author Fitsum Tesfaye Habtemariam, the book combines a simple sequence of daily experiences with an introduction to language and place.

Good fit for readers who enjoy

  • A fit for very young children beginning to explore places around the world.
  • Useful for shared reading about Ethiopian food, daily life and Amharic words.

Book overview

"This series offers solid glimpses of faraway places, more poetry than a tour guide . . . evocative and inviting" - School Library Journal

Selam! It's a beautiful day in Ethiopia. Have a breakfast of spicy chechebsa, ride horses in the park, and gather around the mesob for dinner. Even learn words in Amharic with pronunciation guides throughout the story.
