A Book About The World's People.
At this moment there are more than 6 billion people on this planet. Picturing so many people at one time is hard - but what if we imagine the whole world as a village of just 100 people?
In this village:
22 people speak a Chinese dialect
20 earn less than a dollar a day
17 cannot read or write
50 are often hungry
24 have a television in their homes
'If the World Were a Village' tells us who we are, where we live, how fast we are growing, which languages we speak, which religions we practice and more. So come and learn about our global village. What you discover may surprise you!
