Series Review: Religious Signs, Symbols, and Stories"...these lively and colorful books offer a breakdown of core beliefs and customs. In addition, the authors include tales, poems, prayers, excerpts from holy books, and the history behind religious symbols. Also included are easy-to-complete crafts and recipes. The books are illustrated with photographs and ornate drawings. A decorative border appears on each recto and around some paragraphs, adding attractive visual continuity."
