Have you visited A Year of Reading the World? In 2012, the author set out to read a book from every country in the world. On her site you can read about her journey, difficulties, suggestions from all over the world, and her reading list. I'd like to try to read a children's book from every country in the world. According to the State Department, there are 205 countries (or territories). I've started a spreadsheet, which I hope to turn into a map. Its an exciting, but daunting, project, so we'll see how it goes. I'll definitely be making use of the USBBY bibliographies, but welcome suggestions as well. How far will I get in 2014??? Stay tuned!
