All around you are the people

and places you know.

You have friends

and maybe some pets.

You know your neighborhood

and lots of fun places to go.

You know the people in your family.

There are so many other people

and places to find out about too!

You know your bedroom

and the other rooms in

your house.

In big cities, the streets are full of traffic.

The air is filled with noise.

Uptown, downtown,

off to school or hurrying home—

everyone has somewhere to go.

People crowd the sidewalks.

On every street, people are

rushing to get somewhere.
