My librarian let me take a peek at this, and it could be a good resource for folks doing #ReadingAfrica2022 and other world reading challenges. Not every country is represented, but for those that are, 5 books set there are listed! Alas, another patron has it on hold so I couldn‘t check it out, but I wanted to get the word out!

TheKidUpstairs My library has this one too, it's such a cool book! 2y
BarbaraBB Very interesting! 2y
