This realistic fiction book would be great to read aloud to children in grades K-5, as it should spark many wonderful conversations about differences and similarities amongst cultures.

I truly believe that when people understand each other, they are less likely to judge. This was the time when outfields were larger than they are today and well-hit balls would roll for a long time, giving runners ample time to round the _____ [ bases or basis] for a home run."The conductor had his knotted signal cord to pull, and the motorman _____ [ beat or beet] the foot gong with his mad heel."

Analyzing: How would you compare and contrast Elliot and Kailash? How are they the same? How are they different? Remembering: Who were the characters and what countries did each character come from in the book Same, Same but Different? I live in the Oakland Hills in a tiny house on a street so windy you can’t drive more than ten miles per hour. I rented it because the _____ [ ad or add] said this: 'Small house in the trees with a garden and a fireplace. Dogs welcome, of course.'" Applying: Imagine you have a pen pal who lives in another country. What questions would you ask your pen pal?This is a story about two boys who are “Picture Pals” instead of Pen pals; they draw art and send it to each other. One boy seems to be from a big city in America, the other boy seems to be from India (they never really say in the story). Throughout the story, they draw about their families, towns, languages and schools. The connection I made with this book is a text to self connection in part of the book where the boys send pictures of how they say “hello” in each of their cultures. I don’t have or have ever had a pen pal, much less a “Picture Pal,” but I do have some deaf friends whom communicate differently in their language. They say “hello” and any words to communicate using their hands, whereas in the speaking culture, we can talk. These friends have taught me a lot about their culture by using signs and understanding that even though they may be Caucasian, the deaf people have their own culture since they are not hearing. They taught me at a young age of third grade, that even though we live in the same places, the way they are treated is not often very kind. So just because people live in the same country, doesn’t always mean they have the same culture, but we are all humans and just want to be friendly toward each other.
