NOTES
Explore the mystical world of Pakistani folklore through the story of Abdullah Shah Ghazi. Abdullah Shah Ghazi was born in Medina, but went to Karachi to help guide their people. However, he made many enemies, despite teaching good values such as honesty, and important tasks such as fishing and trading. He was killed by his enemies, but the people loved him so much that they built a shrine for him. Legend has it that Abdullah Shah Ghazi possessed the power to control the sea, and that his shrine is what has kept Karachi safe from the dangers of cyclones till today. This lovely children's book brings his story to life through poetic verse and colourful imagery
