This book takes us on a journey of discovery to the world of what makes up the childhood of all the children in the now enlarged

European Union: The sweets and treats we have (not the ones the big ones can buy outside the school gate), our nursery rhymes and

many of the things which makes each one of our nations laugh and cry, our local witches and wizards, how we all say we-wee and poo-poo,

our traditions at Christmas and Easter and when we lose a tooth.

No other guide has explored the EU-countries in this way or opened the door to the heart of those things that make us different and

make us tick in each our own national way. This book is furthermore an excellent tool for schoolwork: for inspiration to display of

artwork, for homework and for class celebrations.
