Book Description

Living in a new place is very different from visiting one, especially when that place is far away from home. Traveling gives us the rare opportunity to see who we might have been if we had been born someplace else. For some, it's a chance to recreate ourselves. For others, it's a time to realize who we already are. In Open Your Eyes, ten writers will be your guides to the journeys that changed their lives: a boarding school in England; parenthood in France; the most beautiful spots in Italy; China on the Yang-tze; a tiny shop in Tokyo, Japan; and even to Pilzen, Czechoslovakia as World War II is ending. Though each story offers an original viewpoint, all of the stories reflect back on two important themes: where we come from and how we become who we are.

Edited by Jill Davis.

4-0 out of 5 stars Great book for young geography enthusiasts
This is a very good book for younger children who are interested in geography. The cartoonish drawings and the story are simple and interesting for younger kids while the maps have plenty of detail and color. My 6 year old son loves this book. We originally borrowed it from the library and found ourselves borrowing it again 2 or 3 times over the next year. Now he has his own copy! I was glad to be able to find a copy here on Amazon.[com.] ... Read more

5-0 out of 5 stars This is a wonderful book!
This is a great book! My son is 9 years old and went to India a couple of years ago. This book vividly brought back all his memories. What I liked best was that even though it is not written by an Indian, it is so authentic. The illustrations are just great! I highly recommend it. ... Read more

These are the best things that happened to me the year I didn't go to school:

  • Ate spaghetti with fried egg on top.
  • Slept in a truck.
  • Wove cowboy boots.
  • Ciao! (I spoke Italian.)
  • Kept a journal to remember everything that happened.

    5-0 out of 5 stars Beautiful!!!
    My oldest daughter (4) and I LOVED this book! The illustrations are powerful and the story is so fun it makes me want to buy a van and travel around putting on plays with my husband and two daughters!!

    4-0 out of 5 stars This is an adorable book...
    The other reviewer is correct in that there are many mistakes in the Italian and a few in the English. But you have to understand what is going on in the story.
    The family in this story is an American family that goes to Italy for a year to perform. I get the feeling from the book that they are NOT Italian and are just trying to fumble their way through the language as best as they can. You have to remember that this is not an Italian language instructional guide. It's an autobiographical telling of a year of Ms. Potter's childhood. With that in mind, the other mistakes make sense too. I read the story again and found that the mistake the former reviewer mentions is contained in a section where young Giselle is writing in her journal. It is the writing of a child, hence the grammatical mistakes.
    And the reviewer is also correct about there not being many captivating images of Italy, but I don't think Italy is supposed to be the star of the book. Ms. Potter wants us to learn from the lessons she learned as she traveled through that beautiful country. The most important lesson, I feel, is being able to support your family and find the joy in life even when things aren't going so well.
    No, this isn't the book you should use if you are trying to teach Italian to your child, but if you just want a cute little book for your child to enjoy, this one will do just fine. My 2 daughters loved it - especially the thought of having a year off of school!

    1-0 out of 5 stars Too many mistakes
    I was so excited to see this book -- I've been teaching my children Italian, so it seemed perfect. I was very disappointed to see the many mistakes not only in Italian -- but also such elementary grammatical mistakes in English as "it's" instead of "its." The story itself is episodic, without much compelling action, sense of place or character. The book could have been set in Spain or West Virginia without much change to the story or illustrations. ... Read more
