About the Author:
Even in this increasingly global and geopolitical world, many Americans are ignorant of the locations of other nations or have very limited knowledge of other cultures. An easy way to combat this cultural myopia is to expose young school children to stories set in other countries.
Nancy J. Polette is professor of education at Lindenwood University, St. Charles, MO, former director of the Laboratory School for Gifted Children, author of more than 100 professional books, and an in-demand conference speaker.
