Maya’s World is a picture book series that Maya Angelou published in 2004 and 2005. Each book tells a story centered on a child from a different part of the world: Italy, Lapland, Hawaii, France, and Jamaica. The five books were written for young readers and use the name and setting of each country to ground their stories.
The series reflects Angelou’s international experiences and her interest in connecting children to cultures beyond their own. The books are short and illustrated, aimed at early readers.
