[LM_NET] GEN: Book "If the World were a village". . . similar to the website "The World as 100 people."

[Rebecca Dickenson <Rebecca.Dickenson@BLOUNTK12.ORG>]

BOOK TITLE: If the world were a village: a book about the world's people
COMMENTS: This book is based on a similar premise to the website "The World as 100 
people" that Mary Ludick posted earlier; she suggested that others might be 
interested in this book.  (Thanks Mary!) 
I used this book to intro population pyramids and other discussions at the 
beginning of the year when I taught geography.  I think I pasted the Amazon link in 
correctly.  (No, I don't own stock in the 
book, I just really, really loved using it).

be born with the resources available to me.
