Presents the land, people, culture, and traditions of Bangladesh in an alphabet book with each letter of the alphabet featuring an aspect of city or country life.

A photograrphic alphabet celebrating of Bangladesh in all its aspects, from Crocodile to Jute, from Lungi to Rickshaw.

In this photographic alphabet, the author introduces young readers to some of the customs, religion and culture - both ancient and modern - that make up this newly-formed, densely-populated country whose life-blood is the Bay of Bengal. Focusing on towns, countryside and waterways, this is a celebration of Bangladesh in all its aspects, from Crocodile to Jute, from Lungi to Rickshaw.



From Dhaka to Jamdani, from Crocodile to Rickshaw, B Is for Bangladesh profiles a young country, once part of India, with an ancient history and centuries of tradition. Vibrant photographs show the resilient Bangladeshi people, who welcome visitors with a smile. Most of the citizens are Muslims, but there are also Hindus, Christians, and Buddhists, all featured here. The book also showcases the country's natural wonders in striking images of the world's largest mangrove forest, where tigers roam; and the rivers that criss-cross the land, feeding the rice-fields as they flow south. From everyday items like food and clothing, to historical and cultural sites, B Is for Bangladesh shows young readers what it's like to live in this fascinating country.

This is a bright, colourful book with an attractive design. Rahman was born in Bangladesh and she provides an author's note at the beginning which explains, in simple terms, why Bangladesh is a 'young' country, and gives some basic facts about its religions and geography. This note mentions the natural disasters that have befallen Bangladesh and in doing so, highlights the resilience and positivity of the Bangladeshi people. www.writeaway.org.uk A welcome addition to this well-loved series of books... This is a very inviting book, beautifully designed for parents or teachers to ejoy a stunning selection of photographs which present aspects of life in Bangladesh of particular interest to children.
