In Japan, Kei plays Freeze Tag, while in Uganda, Daphine likes to jump rope. While the way they play may differ, the shared rhythm of their days—and this one world we all share—unites them.

 

This genuine exchange provides a window into traditions that may be different from our own as well as mirrors reflecting our common experiences. Inspired by his own travels, Matt Lamonthe transports readers across the globe and back with this luminous and thoughtful picture book.

日本的小京和朋友喜歡玩「冰鬼」(類似台灣的紅綠燈遊戲)；烏干達的妲布希奈放學後和同學一起玩跳繩。7個孩子愛玩的遊戲各不相同，但是他們一天的作息其實大同小異──從吃早餐、上學、放學、玩樂、晚上和家人聚餐、上床睡覺（一共15個段落）──我們共享的這個世界，這世界也把我們聚在這地球上。這次特別的體驗分享，提供一個讓我們認識異文化的視窗，它像一面鏡子映照出我們共通和不同的經驗。
