(3) PS Valdivia introduces hemispherical differences through simple text ("If it's planting time up above, it's harvest time down below") and spare, blocky illustrations that clearly delineate above and below with a horizontal line. But there's also a gentle message here for preschoolers: even though "there are different kinds of people" in the world, "they’re all the same, except in a few small ways."
