This major series forms the perfect introduction to different countries of the world. Written and illustrated with young children's interests and abilities in mind, each title explores one country through those features which make up its individuality and character. It describes how the people live from day to day, and explains in very simple terms, the country's social, economic and political structure. There are tips on what to look for when on a visit there, and a variety of activities to do at home.
Each text is short and simple, offering multiple starting points for further discovery and discussion. It is beautifully complemented by numerous colour photographs, illustrations and maps.
