A Ride on Mother's Back
By Emery and Durga Burnhard

(Reviewed by Columbia Center's Ann Grauer.)

This children's book shows parents of many cultures moving throughout their day while "wearing" their babies. The illustrations are lush and interesting and the the text for each family tells a short story.

At the end of the book there is a section that goes into more detail about the cultures represented throughout its pages. A fascinating, fun read for the family!
