Illustrated with black-and-white and full-color photographs. "Today,

most religious people in the world practice one of these seven religions

[Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and

Taoism].All have had a deep effect on the laws and customs of every country.

They have shaped art, literature, music, and education. They have given the

world magnificent stories, songs, buildings, holy objects, ceremonies, and

festivals." From the Introduction to Many Religions, One World.

Best-selling children's author Mary Pope Osborne presents an accessible and

elegantly crafted volume that introduces young readers to the world's seven

major religions. Six short readable chapters--perfectly targeted to fourth,

fifth, and sixth graders--detail the history, beliefs, and practices of

Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism, and Taoism.

Handsomely designed and featuring fifty oversized color photographs and a full

complement of reference materials, including a map, time line, and

bibliography, this book provides a thorough and thoughtful presentation of the

diverse ways people worship around the world.




It's hard enough to find a good survey of world religions for adults, let alone for children, so when I found One World, Many Religions, I was stunned. With a sensitivity for detail and an easy style, Mary Pope Osborne delivers a valuable introduction to all of the world's major religions: Judaism, Christianity, Islam, Hinduism, Buddhism, Confucianism and Taoism. The balanced yet brief treatment; vibrant photographs depicting children around the world engaged in worship; the glossary, map and timeline all work to provide a concise, informative and engrossing introduction to the variety of religions everywhere.
