In nursery and primary schools, children celebrate different holidays according to their culture. But most of them do not know much about their friends’ religions. This book explains the five major world religions – Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism – through the year with basic facts and answers to questions that are understandable to children.
This book shows how very different festivals are celebrated around the world at the same time of year – and how similar they can also be.
"Fact files" on the five major world religions and overviews of the yearly festivals for each religion at the end of the book provide additional information.
