Open Educational Resources: Policy, Costs, and Transformation

Each book offered a brief glimpse into the life of a child in one country. The books piqued the interest of the reader by presenting each country's unique and even exotic landscapes and traditions, yet I believe that what really struck a chord with those who followed the stories were the inner lives of the children, and their relationships with their siblings, parents, and peers. The lives of the foreign children seemed at once so different from the life of the reader, yet so similar.
