When Spring Comes to the DMZ (PICTURE BOOK)

This is a very interesting book, it describes the Korean demilitarized zone not only in the spring but through all the seasons through a little boys eyes.  He see what the animals do, what the soldiers do, even what his Grandfather does but the worst is what he can not do. 
This was a good book, very informative for teaching how others live, very diverse.  I loved how it was seen through the little boys eyes as he had grown up with it with all this, because even as he mentioned things  like the barbed wire, it was  done in passing like it was just part of life, always been there always will be.   The illustrations are out of this world and the surprise at the end of the book is wonderful, truly artistic.  Do not forget to read some of the author notes at the end those have some really good things to talk about especially the one about the animals on the DMZ.  Although I am not to crazy about their target age group preschool - 3 (it might work), I think it would work better for younger elementary schoolers, but that is just me.  I still loved the book and its diversity.
