What's It Like to Live In...? series.
This country snapshot briefly covers such topics as landscape, transportation, weather, housing, industry, and festivals. Newly independent readers will garner some basic information from the simple, easy-to-read text and minimally captioned color photos, but, overall, the presentation is slight. A scrapbook section of random "things you might find in Jamaica" and list of Jamaican words are appended. Glos., ind.
