About the series:
Some objects are the same throughout the world but the way we use them or the meaning we give them is different according to the countries, the times, the cultures. Telling the story of these objects is also telling our life and the society in which we live.
Non-fiction to read as a story, illustrated like a picture book, to look at the world through a familiar object.
