Review
"This unusual book offers a surprising amount of information, organized and presented in an appealing way."
― Kirkus Reviews
"Clear and accessible."
― School Library Journal
"This selection is a pleasant and helpful addition to social science, career, urban/country comparisons, and environmental issues." ― Library Media Connection
"It's a fascinating subject, and one the duo tackles with a refreshing lack of silliness."
-- Nathan Whitlock ― Quill & Quire
"For curious kids who want to know all about the world (what's climate change and why did Grandpa immigrate, anyway?), this non-fiction book has the answers." ― Today's Parent Magazine
"Concisely written but packed with a wealth of up-to-date information, Why We Live Where We Live has excellent potential to spark discussions among young readers as they consider their identity, their relationships with other people and cultures, and how they might want to influence the future of living situations." ― Canadian Review of Materials
"The friendly text and amusing illustrations make the sometimes difficult subject matter accessible. This is an excellent book for the classroom, school projects, and those children (all children?) who are always asking, 'Why?'" ― National Reading Campaign
"This resource asks a unique question and stimulates young readers, ages 8-12, to engage in the world around them. It would be a great inclusion to any social studies, history or science curriculum to help youngsters understand the way society has evolved and their place within it." ― Green Teacher Magazine
"The conversational tone of the text is complemented by Julie McLaughlin's colourful illustrations which are dynamic and, at times, humorous." ― Resource Links

5.0 out of 5 stars Five Stars
Bravo! Well done.
5.0 out of 5 stars I had this great idea, it is going to solve problem A
I borrowed this book from our local library.The book is fabulous! It presents a large view of the needs and adaptations in the places people have lived. It is a book that asks us to think-great, I had this great idea, it is going to solve problem A, but will my solution introduce problem B. This is the type of thinking we need for our children now, when we need to realize that we are humans are plenty enough to have profound effects on mother nature.I wholeheartedly recommend this book!
