The latest title in Frances Lincoln's wonderful World Alphabet series. Vibrant photographs and simple text combine to show the many different aspects of life in this young country. Other titles in the series include A is for Africa and J is for Jamaica - all titles in the series make a fantastic introduction to national culture, customs and religion for Key Stage One children. (Bookseller )

In this book... photographs and text are arranged alphabetically to introduce young readers to the culture of this developing country. The photographs are colourful and give an authentic sense of daily life in Pakistan. The accompanying descriptive text by the author who was born in Pakistan is simply written… a fascinating glimpse of life in Pakistan (www.writeaway.org.uk )

As an introduction to the country this book should be useful as a talking point. (School Librarian )
