When it’s six o’clock in San Francisco, what time is it where you live?

When it’s six o’clock in San Francisco and Jared is just starting his day, it’s eleven o’clock in Santiago, where Elena is hard at work on a math problem at school. When it’s six o’clock in San Francisco and eleven o’clock in Santiago, it’s four o’clock in Cape Town and Nkosi stops to look at used CDs in the market.

When it’s six o’clock in San Francisco, children all over the world are busy going to school, playing with their friends, and spending time with their families. This lyrical picture book, illustrated in comic-book style by award-winning illustrator Randy DuBurke, celebrates the uniqueness of our world’s many cultures, while emphasizing the similarities in all children’s lives.

Cynthia Jaynes Omololu majored in English at U.C. Santa Barbara because she liked to read, not because she liked to write. In fact, for years all of her journals ended on or about January 21st because writing about her life was well…boring. After her kids were born, she discovered that she did like to write about the lives of fictional people, and that the voices in her head often have interesting things to say.

Cynthia lives in Northern California with her Nigerian husband (hence the vowel-filled last name) and two sons.
