In this study, the compatibility of 4th grade Ministry of Education Turkish book with the higher order thinking domains of PIRLS is evaluated. Those thinking levels are : Finding information clearly given in the text (20%), Making direct inference (30%), Interpreting by combining information and ideas (establishing a relationship between them) (30%), Examining and evaluating the elements, content and language use of the text (20%). For evaluation, in each unit the texts have been categorised according to text type and the utilized comprehesion questions for each text. Findings have shown that the distribution of comprehension questions according to four levels of higher order thinking targeted in PIRLS applications is not in a balanced number in each unit.
