Look Where We Live!

This book is great, for children to learn about transportation and their town around them.

Fabulous! What measurably effective ways kids can contribute to their communities! Engaging pictures, clear guidance. Makes me wish I was within the pages joining in on all the fun!

Great book that opens up discussion of the community around us. Kids really enjoyed the details and pictures as well.

This book explains the many ways community building may function to create a positive constructive life-giving environment. Delightful pictures full of action. I would suggest that when shared with a 4–5-year-old child to look at the pictures and discuss them. It is much more suited to reading to a 6–8-year-old and would lead to interesting conversations. I highly recommend this book.

This book was wonderful and opened conversations for children.

This is a cute book to introduce kids to just how much everyone in the community is connected. I like the questions in place to help engage the reader or listener in how they can help their own community.

Great book teaching kids about community, interacting with each other, and how we live.

A delightful book about community. My 4-year-old had many fun questions about the illustrations.

This is a great age appropriate book

I read it to my 5th graders and they actually liked it. We were able to transition into a discussion of the town we live in and I like how inclusive the book is .

I chose this book as I thought it would be a great way to break down community building- and it did! Look Where We Live! A First Book of Community Building is a book that is well done, has terrific artwork, and uses font extremely well. It has multiple ways each of us can participate in our community's well-being. For example, community cleanup is one of the items addressed. At the bottom of each "lesson", it states in bold type the result of our action. This is a great book for kids to learn about the community in which they live and how we can all make a difference somewhere no matter what our age!

This is a sweet and informative book about five friends exploring their community. My children really enjoyed it and said it reminded them of pre-COVID when we got to explore our community. It encourages kids to be involved in their community! The drawings are very detailed and my young kids liked looking at them.

An engaging book to help young readers engage with what it means to engage in positive change in their neighborhoods and build community.

We loved this book! The diversity is exactly what I was looking for when adding books to our collection.

I absolutely love this book and how it explains to students the places around town in a way that they will understand.

Excellent youth-friendly introduction to community building! My 6 year old loved it and we hope it will be read for years to come!

I loved reading about this fun community. It made me nostalgic for the times before Covid-19. The art is very cute and colorful. So much fun!

My 3 year old LOVES this book! It’s such a great introduction to what a community is and what makes a community strong. He loves the adventure of the story:’following the kids and animals through their day raising money for the library. Such a special book.

My kids love identifying the characters throughout the story and answering questions asked throughout the book about the who, what, and where of their own community. The page about the community garden is their favorite!

Great book with lots of detailed pictures. My nearly 2 yr. old daughter likes it. It's a longer book, but she likes seeing the overall community map and all the things our community has too. Fun!

This book is a wonderful addition to my pre-k book selection. Teaching kids about engagement and community partnerships. I loved the activity at the end of the book, beautiful touch at the end.

This book is a cute book with great illustrations that was used in my class during our community helpers unit. It doesn't flow like a story more like a nonfiction book but that was what I needed it for so it was great. It kept the students engaged.

Neat little book. It does a good job teaching about community and ways to be involved in a community. Enjoyed the diversity of the characters and inclusion in the community for all.

This book is great because it shares the community that our children grow and see. I'm interested in the rest of the series.

A great book to promote local community and launch into conversations about who, where, what, when and how your neighbors create a community in your area.

Such a fun look at a community. My kids had fun looking for the kids on each page. I like how it covered important community landmarks and explained the important role they play in our lives.

Our daughter loves this book.

This is a cute book. My 5 year old loved looking at the pictures and listening to the story. We talked about events that we have done in our community to help relate it better. It has a list of vocabulary at the back with definitions.

Look Where We Live! Was a great way to encourage ideas about the community with my pre-k learner. He loved the visuals and was making connections between jobs and people of the community that contribute to our safety and our basic needs. He was able to accurately identify and explain what most of the art was representing such as the community gardens/gardeners and the police officers. He loved learning about the facts within the book and talking about what the towns people where doing to contribute to society within the context of the book pages.

This book was a great introduction to a community for my kids. It was very informative and helpful.

Wonderful. Great colors and story.
