Title: Where Will I Live?
By: Rosemary McCarney
Genre: Nonfiction
Interest Level: K-3
Review by: Liz Kilibarda
Each night many of us watch the news and see the unsettling images of war and tragedy. Too often, we forget that innocent children are also trapped in this violence yearning for a safe place to live. “Where Will I Live?” by Rosemary McCarney, effectively shows our youngest readers that children all over the world want many of the same things: a home, warmth, food, and safety.
McCarney includes beautiful photographs and simple text to convey these basic needs. Each photograph includes the country of origin in italics. This book is an excellent, age appropriate look at the plight of children in war torn areas. Pair “Where Will I Live?” with the author’s previous book, “The Way To School” which illustrates the lengths some students must go through to get to school.
