Description:

Coutries of the World features a different take on the traditional atlas approach and will capture the imagination by creating one of Basher's quirky and highly memorable characters to visualise the world's countries (and other key territories). You'll never forget the huge and fascinating country of Brazil envisaged as a footballer! Accompanying each country character is a detailed map as well as key facts and some amazing information that will capture the imagination. Who knew that over 820 different languages are spoken in Papua New Guinea, or that Peru has more pyramids than Egypt?
