Costa Rica - Library Binding

by Rachael Morlock (Author)

Costa Rica is a popular vacation destination, but what is life like for the people who call this Central American country home? Readers find out as they journey into the rainforest to discover how geography, history, language, and more come together to shape a nation's culture. Each chapter highlights one specific aspect of life in Costa Rica--from the foods people eat to the holidays they celebrate. These chapters are filled with detailed text, as well as photographs and fact boxes. Additional sidebars introduce the concept of global citizenship, and recipes invite readers to get creative with their cultural education.
