Provides a multifaith exploration into special ceremonies held by six major world religions to mark the end of a person's life.

Synopsis: |
Previously published by Hodder Wayland as "Ceramonies And Celebration: Life's end", this edition has been simplified and updated to suit KS1 and KS2 readers age 6-9 years. Children can discover information such as what sort of clothes Muslims are buried in, why Jewish people stay at home after a family member has died and why special food is shared at a Sikh funeral. The book includes child's-eye accounts of some of these events as well as extracts from ancient religious texts to demonstrate their origins. It provides a fascinating insight into the beliefs and practices expressed through the special ceremonies of the six major world religions and is essential for any classroom or library. |
