Summary: ALL BABYWEARERS NEED THIS BOOK!!
Comment: Those of us that love to wear baby in a sling will love this book! It is beautifully illustrated and depicts so many cultures! My 5 year old son loves it as much as my 1 year old! He is learning that people everywhere, even that are so **different** than us, are the same-- they wear their babies, and my daughter is so happy to see other babies in slings too! A great book for the babywearing family!!

Rating: 5
Summary: Absolutely wonderful for children of all ages
Comment: The illustrations are brightly colored and engaging for babies. The text is interesting for older children and adults alike.
Its a wonderful way to introduce children to other cultures in a medium they can understand and appreciate: parenting.

Summary: A Great Book for the Classroom
Comment: I wish I'd had this book when I was teaching! A Ride On Mother's Back provides myriad opportunities for discussion and further reading. I was especially pleased to see a sister and even a grandfather 'wearing' their respective babies in this delightful world tour. The book presents a wide variety of cultures while providing a comforting commonality -- people everywhere loving their babies, and babies everywhere being included in community life. The book even provides a short appendix in which you'll find brief information about each culture presented (what a great way to encourage further research)and a pronunciation guide for the names of the cultures. One tiny criticism: the author doesn't provide pronunciation hints for the names of the individuals in the book. I'd like to be able to pronounce the names as accurately as possible. This book inspired my 3 1/2 yr. old daughter to look at the children's atlas that she'd been ignoring since last Christmas, and has sparked her interest in geography. Our well-loved copy is dog-eared and worn -- what better recommendation could a book have?
