All About Thailand is a new Thai book for kids ages 8 to 12 which brings you on an incredible journey to exotic Thailand.

Thailand is a place where a modern culture thrives in one of the world's most ancient countries. Your guides in this adventure are two Thai children: Mali is a 9-year-old girl from the countryside and Tawan is an 11-year old boy from Bangkok. Travel with them as they explore their land—experienced its fascinating wildlife, beautiful handcrafts, sports, games, celebrations and, of course—great Thai food! They'll give you a glimpse of what it's like to live in Thailand, and they'll show you all the things that kids in Thailand love to do.

With this Thai culture and history-for-kids book readers will:

  • Visit with elephants and monkeys
  • Learn new fun and challenging games
  • Share Thai myth, fairy tales and fables
  • Get a taste of the Thai language and learn a song or two
  • Make things that let you experience Thailand's beliefs, celebrations and culture
  • Experience the unique flavors of Thailand with a few easy, yummy recipes
  • And lots more!

Along with fun facts, you'll learn about the spirit of the Thailand that makes this country and its people unique. All About Thailand is a book for parents and kids to enjoy together!

"The All About Asia series is the children's version of a folklore handbook, a user-friendly encyclopedia, a DIY manual for experiencing an Asian country's culture from a youth's point of view." —AsianFortuneNews.com
"Appreciation for Thailand's heritage will quickly follow the reading of this book." —Kirkus
"Cheerful contemporary illustrations depicting smiling rice-pickers and rosy-cheeked street-food vendors are inviting but cast an overly idyllic charm that will leave readers erroneously convinced that Thailand is, above all, a tropical paradise." —Booklist
