Wonderful Houses 09
Some houses have an upside down
roof. Those houses are in Senegal,
Africa. Senegal is a hot and dry
place. People cannot get water there.
So, they make a roof with grass.
And they put it upside down. Then, they collect rain!
Indonesia is a hot country, too. The
houses look different from the houses
in Senegal. Indonesians also make a
roof with grass. But they make the roof
pointed. In their thoughts, a god lives
in the pointed roof. And the god takes
care of their families.
Tell me about it.
How are the houses of Senegal and
Indonesia different?
