Non-fiction book review - Ours to Share

Ours to Share by Kari Jones

Jones covers a great deal of group living in a handful of pages. This means that this is a simple overview but that's to be expected. Anything beyond an overview of the history of community becomes pretty complicated pretty quickly. Jones walks us through different forms of early society with a special focus on shared resources. It's the modern era, of course, that gets the most focus and that changes format. In the modern era we look at the difficulties of living in communities and the problems sharing resources. This highlights a serious and complex issue in a way accessible to young kids.
