China

Letters from Around the World

by Julia Waterlow

Designed to assist with Key Stage 1 geography, this series examines life in other countries through simple information and the letters of a young child addressed to a pen-friend. Each book describes the child's home life in a village or city, a typical school day, leisure time pursuits, home life (including food and meal times), religious worship, a festival and the working life of the child's parents. The books have been developed with the help of geography and literacy consultants and offer a variety of elements, including letters, maps, photographs, a fact file and a glossary.
