These beautifully illustrated storybooks introduce young children for the first time to classic stories from the world's major religions. They contain easy-to-read text written by a children's author who specializes in writing about religions. Four different stories in each book are chosen specifically for the age group. Stories cover key beliefs for each religion and many also link to festivals such as Divali and Christmas. Supporting notes for parents and teachers include commentaries on each story to explain its meaning and context, plus a brief introduction to the main beliefs of each religion.
