The world religions - explained to children

The award-winning classic - completely revised and expanded, for the first time with a religious lexicon for downloading For the first time with a religious lexicon to download Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism and Buddhism - Monika and Udo Tworuschka explain the fascinating world of religions to children and interested adults. This new edition offers everything that has already made the book a classic: detailed and child-friendly information on beliefs, religious founders, holy books and holy sites as well as important festivals and customs of the world's religions in a wonderful four-color design with hidden object pictures by Guido Wandrey. This new edition also includes five double pages on the traces of the individual religions that children can find in their living environment. This new edition takes a much clearer look at why religions can also lead to conflicts and how these can be dealt with: It takes up the topics of anti-Semitism as well as religious everyday racist discrimination and also shows that love between people religiously is sometimes not uncontroversial. For the first time, people who are indifferent, critical or even hostile towards their religious tradition are also presented. In addition, there is a complete linguistic review as well as numerous smaller additions, e.g. on special faiths in the religions such as the Alevis in Islam or on dealing with special life events such as marriage or death. An indispensable book for anyone who wants to introduce children to the diversity of human culture and spirituality!
